Phase One Complete
The South Beach diet has got to be the easiest one I have ever done. The cravings during phase one for sweets was tough to take, but I can say I never felt “hungry”.My one big objection to phase one was the headaches. I got a ton of them. Some mornings were like waking up with a hangover, only without the fun the night before.
David lost 15 lbs during phase one and I lost about 8. We are now headed cautiously into phase 2 (where you continue to lose, only a little slower than phase 1), where we introduce some soluble carbs into some breakfasts. But the biggest thrill for me is that wine is back on my list! Woo – hoo!

So I think I might be convinced to try it. I've always done WW in the past but I think I need a jolt of something new. Any tips? I know I need to do all my shopping and meal planning ahead of time so I don't have any excuse for messing up.
Just dont cheat and it will work fine! Also diet snapple and the POPSICLE brand sugar free fudge bars kept me from going nuts!
The little skinny version of the book at Barnes and noble has a great allowed/not allowed/allowed sometiems list for each phase. There are some great cookbooks that really help as well.
