Guest guest Posted June 1, 2005 Report Share Posted June 1, 2005 I am new to the group and can't wait to get started on the south beach diet but before I do I want to rid my fridge of all the things that I shouldn't be eating on this diet and so that they won't be a temptation while I am doing so. I asked my doctor for a good diet and the SBD is what he recommended to me. I asked him after weighing in for a office visit and almost passed out at how much weight I had truly gained in 7 years. I have gone from 156 lbs to 242 lbs in seven years. I am realistic about the whole thing that I did it myself and it took 7 years to put it on and that it won't come off over night like magic. I would like to lose 8-10 lbs a month on average so that by next summer I will look better than I am now. I thank god for finding this group and hope to get to know and make friends here that will help with encouragement as well as be able to give others encouragement as well. I figure I have 100 lbs to lose and give myself a year to do it in. I hope this is a realistic goal. My first question is what is everyone eating for breakfast??? I just want to get some ideas. Thanks for listening to me Gail in Kansas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
