Okay, so I went to the gym tonight and got on the scale... to my surprise I had only lost 1 more pound. I got the south beach diet book and read up on what might be happening. It talks about how not eating is not good! I have definitely not been eating very much lately and I think that is actually hurting me... not helping. So, remember to be eating 3 meals a day and snacks or else your body doesn't run like a machine! Here's to starting phase 2 on Monday! I'm more motivated than ever. Also, I learned that in the first 2 weeks you loose mostly belly weight, which I didn't really have that much to loose. So from here on out I should loose 1-2 lbs a week. That means only 2 more weeks of phase 2 and then maintenance! How is everyone doing out there? Don't let the weekend get you down!!

Saturday-

Breakfast- 2 eggs

Caffix with milk/splenda

Lunch- Huge salad with bacon, Gorgonzola and olive oil/balsamic vinegar

Dinner- Turkey paddie with cheese, sugar free Popsicle

Caffix/ milk and splenda

Hi Mandi,

I wanted to say hi and introduce myself. My name is Laurel Walker and my maiden name is Holt. I am from Alamo and am friends with the Crocketts and Blatters. I saw your blog on Annie's blog.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell you that your diet diaries have been really inspiring! I wanted to start with you guys two weeks ago, but couldn't get started until last Monday. So I am 7 days in! No carbs, no sugar, trying to follow the south beach guidelines you posted. It was miserable the first few days, but I am feeling tons better! It's been hard to find food to eat - which means my previous eating habits were sad!

I hope you don't think I am weird for following you and your friends, but finding your blog really came at the right time. I was meaning to do this (had my second baby 6 months ago) and it was just the right push to get me going.

THANKS!
Laurel
