When I weighed myself last week before I started the south beach diet, I was 196 pounds (89kg). A little part of me freaked out when I saw this number. It meant that I was as much as I weighed when I was about to give birth with Little A. It meant that I was almost 200 pounds. That number scares me – I don’t ever want to go over that mark.
Today I got on the scale and weigh 193 pounds!!! (87.5kg)
I’m very excited to see the weight loss. Starting tonight I am going to try to exercise a little – so that the weight will come off faster. I know that exercise is encouraged during the south beach diet – and I will work it into my busy schedule some how.
I’m very happy to see that just by adjusting my food – there are visible results.
I did have one slip up this week – while at a party. I forgot from the last time I did South Beach, you have to eat at home before going to parties – you never know what will be served and it’s better to be full on the right types of food, than to be tempted to eat something you will regret.
I try not to have regrets, but last night was filled with not very good food choices. Today is a new day and I will make the right choices.
