Back with progress report

Things have gone quite well the past couple weeks. I have gotten back into the routine of the SB lifestyle with little difficulties. I am happy to report that I have dropped 4 lbs since I was last here a couple weeks ago and have lost a total of over 10 lbs since cutting out those nasty "bad" carbs. I am feeling so much better & in control.

Thanks Joy & Cathy! i was pleasantly surprised with how easy it was to get back on track, now if I can just stay focused! It is such a good feeling knowing that I am now 45 lbs lighter than when I first went on South Beach back a couple years ago. I have learned so much these last couple years. My focus, confidence & self-control did go out the window a few times but, I finally hit rock bottom a few weeks ago when I saw the scale continuing to climb and my energy & productivity hitting rock bottom as well. I know that deep down in my heart that it was due to the effects of all the junk I was putting into my body.


I am feeling like a new woman!

Isn't it amazing how what you eat determines how your energy level

Yeah it is really something how it effects it. When I am eating this way, I get so much done and my house and yard shows it!! When I'm not, I stuggle with getting the basic stuff done. The added energy is reason enough to make the effort to eat healthier.
