Tuesday night I made a bean thing and than had leftovers yesterday for lunch and went up .5 lbs. I know I'm not supposed to weigh myself but I was watching to see how foods affect me. So no more beans for me.

    The same thing happened to me today. I had a 1/2 cup of beans with my chicken and today I was up a half a pound. I know it won't stay that way but I tend to stay bloated the next day. We are supposed to drink extra water on days like this and then you will be fine the following day.

    I am new - Day 1 - and just finished my 2nd meal of the day.

    I'm assuming that "beans" are like pinto beans? Not green beans?

    Does anyone know for sure?

    He means Legumes which are beans, lentils and so on... I use black beans a lot. You add mexican spices and it tastes great with a side of chicken or thrown into a salad. Last night when we were finally allowed some rice, it tasted great mixed together with the chicken.

    I do my weekly weigh-in Saturday morning so I'll see what happens. The week one eating plan wasn't really that different from what I have been doing for the past year. After watching Dr. Oz the other day I thought I might watch my bodies reactions to other foods. (It wasn't the Shred show). I will remember to increase the water on my bean days. I don't plan on giving them up, I'll just remember not to eat them the day before a weigh-in day.
