Hi guys, I've been lurking this thread for some ideas and I noticed that it seems to still be active! I've been on south beach before, ended up modifying it later (sometime after I started phase 2) and had tremendous success, losing 60lbs along with becoming an avid runner. Well, my mental health went completely down hill over the spring, so I ended up going back to old binge eating habits, eating junk, not running anymore (this part sucked the most) and gaining about 40lbs.
I'm getting back into south beach and posting my meals and reading others really helps keep the motivation.
Hopefully I can join in?0 -
Oh my gosh, of course you can join...I am just opening my eyes...so thinking is not "open" yet...LOL...but do join us. It has been just the two of us for so long.
And truly posting my menu each day (even if it is not 100% SB, the foundation is there)...it has kept me near my lowest for a long time.
You are in the right place to get you going back in the right direction.
BIG WELCOME!

Yay! Thanks for the welcome!
Oh, I guess I should have mentioned, I'm starting in phase 1 with the husband for probably a few weeks since the week of and week after Christmas will be a bit hit and miss with a few family gatherings, staying with the parents up north the week after, etc. We will try our best though and not sweat the small stuff, enjoy family! We will be back full throttle after the new year in phase 1 again.
Today's preliminary plan.
B : coffee with almond milk and sf syrup, not sure what else yet as I'm not quite hungry yet (I piggied out with the fam with pizza last night
L: more than likely some Crockpot veggie soup I made.
D : what I call broiled fishies with cottage cheese. Mahi Mahi coated with a light coat of flour and panko (yeah, I know, not exactly sb phase 1 friendly, but I'm not sweating the small stuff lol), egg wash, minced garlic, dried dill and then broiled about 7-8 minutes. I then have a side of cottage cheese that has dried onion and sriracha (love that stuff!) Also roasted veggies or big salad. I love brussel sprouts, cauliflower or broccoli roasted.
S : who knows. I have no idea what my day's schedule will be (hate that).
One last thing. I babble a lot and get very side tracked lol. Please bear with me0 -
Hi and welcome!
Funny you mention phase 1. Hubs has declared himself on SB as of Monday. So I've been sort of 1.5 to support him.
Yesterday:
Quest bar, green tea latte
string cheese
low carb wrap with turkey and ham and spinach and low fat cheese
snack was kale chips
dinner was stir fried shrimp, asparagus, peppers
Today:
Br: quest bar and green tea latte
sn: snap peas and broccoli
lu: low carb wrap with turkey and ham and spinach and low fat cheese
sn: veggies
di: not sure!0 -
Morning ladies...babbling is good, beaky.
The leader of this corner of the MFP world is Sabine and she is great at everything nutrition and exercise related. And also very encouraging. My lowest on SB was 135...I had bounced up to 157 last Feb and we did a reboot of Phase 1 then. I was totally dedicated and logged everything. I am now 141. Will look forward to a P1 jump start in January and it will be good to use the diary as reference as to how dedicated I can be.
b: scrambled eggs with salsa, coffee
s: green drink
l: tuna sammy, olives, pear or apple
s: celery and salsa
d: chicken, rice, steamed broc and cauli with light Mexican cheese
d: pita chips and tea
Have a great day ... up very early on Saturday morning. (forgot to turn off one of the alarms.)0 -
Yesterday wasn't too bad, may not have eaten enough.
B : ended up being some shroomies, smoked gouda, onion, black olives with 2 fried eggs on top(super runny yolk, I love that). A V8 along with coffee, almond milk and sf syrup.
L : ended up skipping because I wasn't hungry when I had to leave to drop off 2 kids at 2 different houses (both live about 45 minutes away from mine but 1 hour from each other
) Totally regretted not bringing at least a snack with, got hangry.
Ate a sugar cookie at the husband's parents when I dropped off kid 2.
D : My broiled fishies with cottage cheese and a nice big salad with maters, shroomies, romaine and homemade greek dressing.
Today hopefully I'll be a bit more prepared.
B : Eggs with some veggies and cheese. Not sure if fried or scrambled yet. Coffee, almond milk, sf syrup, V8.
S : Maybe some cukes with laughing cow cheese and turkey. Something to hold me over for karate.
L : Veggie soup probably, try to get some protein in there somehow.
S : Either carrots (yeah, not phase 1 but again, not sweating the small stuff...I love carrots!) or celery with homemade cashew or almond butter.
D : Broiled fishies with cottage cheese, either salad (I want to make some cilantro dressing today if I have time) or roasted veggies of some sort.
That's the plan. All this talk of food is making me hungry, off to make breakfast.

Have a great day ... up very early on Saturday morning. (forgot to turn off one of the alarms.)
You're doing so awesome!0 -
Yesterday went well!
B : Fried eggs with veggies and smoked gouda. Coffee, almond milk and sf syrup.
L : Veggie soup with feta, some carrots and grape tomatoes.
D : Broiled fishies with cottage cheese, roasted broccoli, salad with homemade cilantro lime vinaigrette.
S : Mini Babybel, also snuck in a chunk of some delicious cheese I was using for an egg bake I was making.
Activity for the day: got in about 2.5 miles walking with the mini wiener dog early in the morning, then 40 minute karate class.
Side note...I don't believe in much for fat free/non fat things. If the cheese bounces, something's not right lol. Seriously, I once had a block of reduced fat cheese bounce! The only reason why we buy non fat plain yogurt is because it's cheap at Costco and full fat is way more expensive.
Today's plan...
B : Egg Bake I made yesterday topped with some sour cream and sriracha. Coffee, almond milk and sf syrup.
L : Veggie soup, probably some cheese in there and some raw veggies on the side (mainly to derail me from wanting crackers or bread lol)
D : Broiled fishies and cottage cheese (we usually eat this on the weekends since the husband is working and its super easy for me to whip up, even when I go back to work....hopefully soon). Roasted veggies, no salad since I used the rest of it up last night unless I make it to Costco today.
S : Not sure yet. Whatever suits my fancy at the time
Activities :
Not sure yet. No dog walk this morning, woke up with a stiff neck where I couldn't really move my head. Hoping to get out there at some point. Maybe shopping. I'm feeling a bit lazy, but I know I really should get moving.0
