So, now that you know my sob story, here's the rest. This past weekend was Labor Day weekend, and since both D and I have technically been under our goal weights, we just stopped...worrying about diets for the weekend and ate whatever we wanted. Brownies, breads, pastas, cookies, frosting, etc. Last night we enjoyed pizza and chocolate fondue with friends to kick off our last night before our lifestyles supposedly change forever. We went to bed sick to our stomachs from all the junk food.
This morning, we weighed in; still full and yucky from last night.
Starting weight: 132.8
Goal weight: 122 (120 if I can manage it, but we'll see)
Workout: Today I did a 30 minute Core workout on Wii Active 2
So, South Beach is similar to Slow Carb, except there is no cheat day and you can eat cheese and up to 2 servings of milk or yogurt in a day.
Breakfast: Glass of Citrucel because seriously, the last thing I wanted was food.
Morning Snack: SBD California Roll (Romaine lettuce, one slice of turkey, one slice of chicken, one slice of tomato, tsp of mustard)
Lunch: Spinach and Romaine salad with one slice of lunch meat, 1/4 roma tomato, 1/2 hard boiled egg, and about 3/4 tbsp of olive oil and vinegar dressing
Afternoon Snack: 1 celery stalk with 1 tbsp peanut butter
Dinner: Chicken Enchilada Stuffed Zucchini Boats, 1.5 boats, and 1/2 c black beans.
Dessert: 1/2 a serving of SBD Ricotta Vanilla Creme with 1/4 c plain Greek Yogurt (D and I split this)
Verdict: Compared to the Slow Carb Diet, I totally feel like I'm cheating or being naughty or something. I don't feel hungry or light headed, but there's a big part of me that is terrified I'm eating too much or the wrong things and that I'm going to gain all this weight back. I hope that doesn't happen, but I'm not going to step on the scale until I donate plasma this Friday. And those scales are always trippy.
