South Beach Phase 1 Day 2

Pin It

I slept pretty well last night after soaking, cooking, and storing more black beans than any one family can eat in a week, plus I need to use some to make soup today...

Anyway this morning was an egg day.

Breakfast:  2 fried eggs with 4 strips of green bell pepper, and a glass of Citrucel.

Workout: I wasn't feeling a long ride, so I did the SBD interval workout on a stationary bike in the gym this morning for 20 minutes.  Another ride planned with D for the afternoon.

Morning Snack:  1 scoop Pure Protein Chocolate with 1/3 c almond milk and water.

Lunch: "Taco" salad--spinach, 1 tbsp black beans, 1 slice avocado, 1/4 roma tomato, 1/4 c shredded chicken, 3 tbsp salsa, 1 tbsp fat free sour cream

Snack:  3 slices low sodium turkey breast rolled with 1/4 roma tomato

Workout: 9.5 miles on the bike with D and the baby.

Dinner: Skinnytaste's Chicken Rollatini.  I just omitted the breadcrumbs and used a bit less Parmesan Cheese.  I topped it with the reduced fat shredded cheese I had in the fridge, and served it with black bean soup.

Dessert: Peppermint and Cocoa Ricotta Creme with Greek Yogurt--slightly under 1/2 c total.  Mmm.



I don't know that I can post the South Beach Recipes I use on the internet because of copyright, but definitely do some googling and you can find it pretty easy.  My own recipes, however, I will happily post for  public consumption.

I'm getting really nervous to donate tomorrow: I really hope I'm not gaining weight back in droves, especially since I did gain so much over the weekend.  And those scales?  Forget it.  The lowest one is about 3 lbs less than my home scale, the meanest one is 10 pounds more.  I hate those stupid things.  Someday, I won't hate the scale, I hope.  Please please please, let me at least have lost the weight from the weekend...

NOTE:  After the very cranky baby went to bed, I found myself in the kitchen, ate 2 saltines, 2 reduced fat vanilla wafers, and a couple tablespoons of all natural peanut butter.  Le sigh...2 days and I cheat.  Way to go.  Starting over anew tomorrow.
