I wanted to start a fresh thread. I figure each of us is going to renew, reboot, recommit, or refresh for the new year. Myself included.
As with earlier, my food goals will correspond with fitness/health goals.
I plan to start anew with a reboot on Jan 1, after holiday travels with hubs. I'm sticking to my low glycemic roots, but am indulging a bit, and the wine is flowing....
Cheers and see you in 2017, hopefully with a few new members!

Got an early start and lost 4 lbs so far. Stepping into phase 2 a bit early. Vegetarian and phase one is zapping me of energy. Phase two gives me options, energy and a better chance at sticking with it!2

Hi everyone...here is how today went:

dessert: peanut butter and apple
Sleep well everyone. I feel better with whole food in my body...done with Amy's frozen. I love my inspiralizer, btw. They are sending me a replacement. Great customer support. You can see the reviews on amazon. It's the one by Ali. INSPIRALIZER1 -

l : left over veggie soup with rice
s: orange
d: veggie soup with chicken and rice
d: apple with peanut butter
HAGDE!1 -
The new South Beach Diet has been advertised on tv...it's very Nutrisystem-esque. I just finished a big bowl of veggie rice soup with spinach added. No chicken. Too tired to stop and buy and cook.
I finally stopped eating Amy's light and lean frozen. Pretty sure I am going to stay away from plunking down all that dough for frozen food program.0 -
Today's Plan is going to look like this:
b hard boiled egg/Trader Joe's chile corn salsa mash with a side of avocado
l veggie soup with rice and spinach
s oranges
d probably tilapia and inspiralized veggies
d Healthy Choice fudge bar and peanut butter
Feeling so much better since I made veggies the star of my day. Not sure how much I have lost...but honestly, being able to fly through my day feeling happy is more important. The feeling of well being is worth passing up all the goodies.1 -
Sounds good to me, Magic. Only I wish it weren't so much more work .
Today:
Br: V8 juice, All-Bran Bran Buds, banana, blueberries, skim milk
Lu: black bean soup, spinach salad with hard-boiled egg and clementine, 2 ak mak crackers
Sn: pear/skim mozzarrella stick, yogurt/apple
Di: green salad, salmon and vegetables TBD, whole wheat mini bagel, pistachios
This may change, since I might be going out to eat for either lunch or dinner.0 -

I just saw an ad for the new frozen stuff. I haven't decided if I'll try it.
Amy's is my go to frozen food, I always have a couple of burritos on stand by.0 -
Today's plan:
br: savory oats with 2/3 cup steel cut oats, spinach, an egg, and some avocado
sn: none. Did you see that breakfast? lol
lu: kale and chickpea salad, possibly with salmon or sardines
di: the last night of the vegetarian chinese hot pot.
de: SF chocolate pudding.0 -
Oh great. So what do you all think? Think this frozen South Beach might be something?0

I looked up the website...called...looked at the menu. I don't know. I tried Nutrisystem a couple times...always ended up giving the food away. I just think it's better to cook our own food...make it as easy as possible.
I am going to stick with what I am doing. I lost 40 pounds on SB the first time around...went from 175 to 135. I am 147 today.
Time to just do the work...prepare the meals and just do it.
Today ended up like this:
b hb eggs and corn salsa
l I left it in the fridge.
late after noon: added more spinach to my rice and veggie soup. split an apple with puppy dog.
snack: hot chocolate made with water.
snack: oranges
dessert: peanut butter and HC fudge bar0
