Day One of Phase One Down!

Hi all!  I have officially completed Day One of Phase One and so far, I feel GREAT!  The only thing that perturbed me today was my salad at dinner.  I looked down when I was taking the last bite and thought "Oh NO!!! There's something in this that I'm not supposed to have."  It didn't hit me until just then that I bought bagged salad greens with shredded carrots. Oh well....live and learn. :)  It was only my first day.  Going forward, I will post this in the journal section, but here is what I had today:



  • No Breakfast because I waaaay overslept and didn't want to be late for work!

  • Mid Morning:  1 Liter of Water with a packet of sugar free Crystal Light Raspberry Ice

  • Lunch: Mixed Salad with lettuce, cucumbers, lowfat cheese, tomatoes and lemon pepper tuna.  Basil Ranch dressing (Only 1 carb!) 2 - 16.9 oz. bottles of water

  • Mid Afternoon: Special K Protein snack bar, 1 - 16.9 oz. bottle of water

  • Dinner: Baked Tilapia fish with 2 tbsp. horseradish sauce (in place of my beloved tartar) and large mixed salad (too bad it had carrots!) with basil ranch dressing, 1 - 20 oz. glass of water and a Diet Dr. Pepper

I know just in looking at my food journal that I need way more veggies.  Anything else I'm missing?  Also, what types of salad dressing are the best for Phase One?  I missed my workout today, but plan on catching up tomorrow.


How did I do? :)

Hi,


You've got to do some better planning because eating regularly is very important on South Beach.

You're right, in that the SBD bars aren't legal until Phase 2.
