Day 1
If you would have asked me last week whether or not I was eating healthy, I would have said "yes." I thought I was following Phase 3 of the South Beach Diet.
Well, I sat down this weekend and looked at the book versus what I was eating. I have decided that I was actually on the "sea food" diet. You know, see food, eat food. I looked at calories and carbs of a couple of my regular food choices, and discovered that they have little or no relationship to a diet, South Beach or otherwise.
So, I am, officially as of this morning, on Phase 1 of the South Beach Diet. This is no sugar (duh!) no carbs, no fruit, no booze and lean meat portion of the proceedings. (Fortunately, it's only 2 weeks) The goal is to re-establish a better baseline metabolism. Hopefully, between that and continued exercise, I'll make the changes needed.
