Planning to do low carb diet again

Today I had a protein shake, banana and coffee for breakfast

Lunch was a green juiced drink, tomatoes, carrots, beet, celery, parsley
was o.k. , I don't like tomato juice.  But, they had to be used today.


I am doing a detox this weekend and hope to start a low carb south beach style diet
after detox.  Lots of fruit, veggies, protein with limited carbs in my future.

down 8 lbs in almost 5 weeks

Not a ton but still that is something. I only cheated one day out of the 5 weeks.  I have been drinking protein shakes, eating eggs veggies and beans for brunch, have a handful of nuts for midafternoon snack, lots of veggies and meat for dinner. I have a small amount of cheese here and there.  I have wine 1 glass, a few nights a week.  I hope to start seeing a weight loss of at least 2lbs a week sooner than later.

Down 8 and a little more

Hey there! Doing the south beach/4 hour body and I am doing well. I was happy to see the # go down.  Finally. I hope it just starts doing that consistently per week.  We have been eating eggs, beans, veggies protein shakes, salads, meat and veggies for dinner, a little cheese here and there, a little fruit here and there. A few glass of wine here and there.  Book club last night I got a burger no bun with a salad.  Avoided the bread with ease.  Stir fry tonight with steak.  I am also frying up chicken breasts to have in the fridge since I am taking the wok out:)

down 7.8

Ugh week 3 ends tomorrow. I hope to report some sort of loss.  I had a protein shake for breakfast and lunch Sat and went to a Brazilian steak house for dinner. Great salad bar and lots of meat.  Sunday we went out for brunch and I had a bacon and veggie omelet with tomatoes on the side.  For dinner we had chicken and roasted zucchini and peppers.  Today I had a protein shake, nuts, cheese, and I really need to make lunch still.  Tonight I plan on making fish and brussel sprouts.  Oh I did have my first fruit in 3 weeks yesterday I had 15 cherries and a glass of red wine. Delicious evening snack.

still down 7.5.... waiting for a sudden drop in weight:)

doing phase one still with addition of a glass a wine a few nights a week.
This week we had stuffed porkloin, chicken drummies and salad, salmon and roasted cauliflower 
and tonight i am bakng a roast with veggies.  I have been eating mostly salad, a few nuts and little cheese for lunches.  I did make the mocha ricotta dessert in the book, it  was pretty good! It hit the spot. 
I have added back caffeinated coffee thank the lord.  I have had  a few diet cokes a week on average.  I use to have one a day with lunch so I think that is good.  I went to the gym once this week but did go on a few 30 minute fast paced 2 mile walks this week as well.  TGIF!
