I just finished 2 weeks on phase 1 and lost 5.8 pounds (15% of my goal). I was hoping to lose a little bit more, but I am pretty happy anyway. I just finished a granny smith apple with a tbsp of peanut in each half as part of my lunch. I think I am going to really enjoy phase 2! So far eating according to the south beach plan, I have been very satisfied and haven't had many cravings at all. I hope it stays this easy to stick to!

Yayyy!
FYI- it is expected to lose 10% of your total loss in the first 2 weeks...so 15% is awesome!!

Congrats on the loss and enjoy the next phase!

I wish you luck. Phase 2 for me is right arond the corner...Phase 1 has been realatively easy and I am nervous to take the next step...keep me posted on your progress as you add in good, healthy carbs. I am intersted to see how it goes for you!

I just finished the first week of phase 2 and I lost 2 more pounds even with adding in some fruit every day! It tasted so good. I am trying to add things slowly, so most days I only had 1/2 of a fruit, this week I am adding in starchy vegetables on a few days and we will see how that goes. So far, I am amazed that I am usually satisfied with the allowed foods and am not tempted to cheat very often. I wish you lots of luck when you start phase 2. I am sure you will enjoy it!

Yay for you! Good luck in phase 2. Fruit and starchy veg is sooooooo nice to eat! You won't regret it!

Enjoy the second phase! You're doing great!
