My friend's mom has been doing South Beach, and now my friend and I are planning on trying it out. I need to loose anywhere from 40 to 60 lbs to get into a healthy weight range (aiming for the 60 lb. mark). My friend has a similar weight loss goal.
We have some questions before we start on Monday:
-What are some good options for phase 1 for Fast Food (McDonalds, KFC, Burger King)? (I have church activities and we eat at fast food locations often).
-What are some good options for phase 2 for Fast Food?
-What can we eat at California Pizza Kitchen? Applebees? Ihop? Chilis? Ihop? (Phases 1 and 2)
-How do we satisfy our sweet tooth, especially in Phase 1?
-What are some veggies that are high in carbs?
-Is it alright to have lemon and/or lime with water during phase 1 (even though fruit is off limits)?
-Is it safe to stick with Phase 1 longer than 2 weeks?
-How often can we have, say, a slice of Red Velvet Cake at California Pizza kitchen? (After Phase 1 of course)
-Do you have any other tips on how to get started?
What are some tips and advice for doing the South Beach Diet?
for fast food and family dining spots? Just unbreaded lean meats low in saturated fats that don't have sugary sauce also salads withought dressing
Your allowed like 70 calories worth of sugar free treats a day
So long as you take a vitamin and fiber supplement you can stay in phase 1 for as long as you want I think I was in phase one for 2 months at least
I followed the diet faithfully combined with an exorcise plan that left me with a daily calorie deficit somewhere around 300-500 lost 90lbs in 8 months
