Torture Update

Disclaimer: Please don't let my personal opinions stray you away if you are considering the South Beach Diet. It is truly a wonderful, healthy way to lose weight. And Tracie, you should stop reading this right now.

But.....here's the thing. I'm already ready to quit this horrific diet, and it's only day 2. SERIOUSLY...I'm such a wimp. When I'm sitting there eating my 87th bite of cucumber, I think "am I this set on losing weight?" "Why not just exercise? That is really what you need to do." I'm a pretty healthy eater most of the time anyway...I guess. Yes, this plan is great, but I'm just not as excited as I was. Understandably.

I made my eggs differently this morning and used canadian bacon and cheese. I drove to work with my fork and bowl and ate them along the way. Nice and safe, yes. I was so excited about making these vegetable quiche cups, so that I could take one right out of the freezer and pop in the microwave to eat on-the-go. Nope. They'd probably be good on another day with all that spinach. I'm so hungry right now, because I don't want to eat anything that I can eat. I don't think this is the way it's supposed to be. I'm going to bed!

I think I might just start on Phase 2 after 2 days instead of 2 weeks. I've had enough!

I didn't listen to you. I read the whole thing. I'm not discouraged yet. But probably cuz I haven't really started it yet. Instead, I'm doing the "be too busy to eat" diet. Not on purpose. But seriously, I woke up this morning and was drinking coffee and I could feel it burning the lining of my tummy. Not good. Hang in there Stace, you can do it.
