2019 Reboot
Replies

I know I need to reboot, but I've lost my motivation. I start out each day well, then I lose my way. Any suggestions?0

Join the FB group. Seeing so many people doing P1 at any time might be motivating. It's called: South Beach Diet Support Group (based on Dr. Agatston's original plan).
PS Sorry for the delay. Was traveling.0 -
Thanks, Sabine. I joined but haven't checked FB recently.1

Thanks so much, Sabine, for turning me on to ETL group! I am totally into WFPB eating...changed up my whole kitchen, making food from scratch, following recipes...drinking plant/nut milks...OMG...I am totally sold on this way of life/eating.
I am still dealing with pain in my knees, but not as much...have really reduced the inflammation. I am now below 140. Got a great report on my blood work from a week ago...doc says to keep doing what I am going.
So, she is happy with my plant based, whole food way of eating.
Any, wishing you and sweet Silvergirl a wonderful Springtime! Eat your veggies!

black coffee
oatmeal with flaxseed, strawberries and banana...and first time using soy milk...bought the Westsoy that is NON GMO and Organic. (plus 9 grams protein in a serving)
Green Smoothie...left over from yesterday: organic berries frozen from Costco Triple Berry Blend, spinach, bit of almond milk that was left...and 16 ounces maybe more of water. I really liked it. I do not think I like smoothies with banana...too thick. Nor do I like cherries in smoothies. Actually, jury is still out...cuz I love love love fresh cherries! Lots has gone down the sink...I like this one cuz it was thin and not too sweet.
Going across town today for a hair cut...will be near a Whole Foods...think I will splurge and go in ...(YIKES $$$$)....but it is like Disneyland to those of us who follow WFPB eating...so I want to check it out.
Will check out the Engine 2 products -exclusive at Whole Foods - that might work for me on my long work days (FOR CONVENIENCE--I think they are NOT GF...so might not work.)
Lunch: massaged kale salad.
Dinner: grilled veggie salad. California Pizza Kitchen used to make this. I hope I can remember...the lettuce is romaine grilled...with an assortment of veggies. Will add some beans of some sort to pump up the protein for the day.
Dessert: banana chocolate icecream made in the blender... banana, unsweetened cocoa, almond milk , one medjool date0 -

Glad you're enjoying ETL. I read the books, and have incorporated much into my eating over the years. And I love the group. Such great folks.1 -

So far, I've been doing pretty well on this recent reboot, except for yesterday, when I went overboard with pistachios. I'd had 2 hours sleep the night before, and my resolution was weak. I suppose it could have been worse--at least the pistachios, which are no salt variety, are healthy
.

I haven't been in a posting mood, but am following along and still on the beach!1

That's great, Sabine.
My menu today is exactly the same as yesterday's. I can obviously tolerate a certain amount of boredom if it allows me to be lazy . 0 -
1st time soon to be follower of South Beach. I am a little confused because I thought phase 1 was no dairy. Am I wrong? Thanks!0

The original south beach diet allowed for dairy. Not sure about the online version, which is basically a low carb diet. Where are you gathering your information? Good luck to you, regardless!0 -
Thanks Sabine! I was getting confused by the 2 versions. Did more research and found the FB group you had mentioned to someone else. I started officially w P1 May 14th, but stopped my 40 oz/day Mt Dew habit the day before that. I am down 14 lbs (I could easily lose 100lbs to be at a truly healthy weight).
The hardest part for me is getting enough vegetables. A lot of my favorites are not in P1 and I am really not a fan of green veggies. Get tired of salads sometimes. Also kills me to limit my dairy. But trying to really stick w it. Thanks for the encouragement!1 -
