Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 Hi, Someone sent me the South-Beach book and I have it in microsoft word and I can't find it in there. Is there any other place where I can find the information? Thanks. Terri Re: phase 3 Your best bet is to read the book. About $6 paperbook or free at your local library.

Guest guest Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 You can go to yahoo groups and access the files for this group for recipes and other tips about each phase but it's still not the same as reading the book IMO.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 You answered your own question. In Phase 3 you can have anything that doesn't result in weight gain - you maintain. In other words, from what you've learned in Phases 1 and 2, you should begin to know what works and what doesn't. Chuck phase 3 > I'm interested in learning about phase 3 of the South-Beach Diet.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Terri, Chuck has summarized very aptly what Agatston says about phase 3. The SBD book does have some phase 3 recipes, and the SB _Good Fats Good Carbs Guide_ gives a rating on the avoid-enjoy scale for phase 3 foods. But mostly, like the transition from phase 1 to 2, I recommend taking the transition into phase 3 slow. Experiment with whatever foods you want to add and watch for weight gain and the return of cravings. I don't see phase 3 as a license to eat anything I want anytime I want. Well, maybe in a way I do because what I like to eat has evolved over the last 2 years on this WOE. I prefer SB friendly food. I've been on phase 3 for a total of I'm guessing about 8 or 9 months, not all consecutive. On phase 3, mostly I eat a lot like phase 2 with a little more fruit and ww bread and less concern about an occasional white bread roll at a restaurant or a hotdog at a ballgame. I'm just talking from personal experience. Chuck, do you want to add anything about how you handle phase 3 compared to phase 2?

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Hi Bob and Chuck, Thank you both very much for letting me know about phase 3. I really appreciate it.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Well, maybe that my Phase 3 resulted in a 10 lb. gain that stays with me ;-) But I have held at that point since Christmas. I'd like to loose the 10, but going back to Phase 1 for a week had absolutely no impact. Today I was at a friends house all day working on a project. I was offered a couple of drinks and something for lunch. The drinks were canned lemonaide. I'm sure they were loaded with sugar. Lunch was a hamburger on a white roll. I did luck out with an afternoon snack - peanuts. Given a choice, I would not have eaten those things (except the peanuts). However, I also knew from experience that eating them would have no impact - no cravings, etc. When I got home at 6:30 tonight, I had a SB friendly supper, just like it never happened. I just carry on. Chuck was 250/ now 186 Re: phase 3 Terri, Chuck has summarized very aptly what Agatston says about phase 3.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 I am still trying to get off 10 pounds that I gained on Phase 3. Taking me a long time. I was on maintenance way over a year, and all of a sudden 10 pounds crept up, so I am seriously journaling, and trying to find the answer.

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Di, If you tried phase 1 again already, then have you thought about adding a little more exercise? That can kickstart weight loss, and I think it could be even more important for that last 10 pounds that people seem to have trouble losing.
