I contribute the inch loss to breathing alone, I haven't done anything else but take a short 20 minute walk one day. I lost inches very well the last time I was consistent with the breath work, too, and it's motivated me to make it a daily activity. again! We can still check in with one another if you like.....I find if I don't breathe in the mornings, it may not get done at all that day!!! Does that happen to you?
My diet is another story...I really need to be more low carb than South Beach, I noticed a big stall in lbs off the scale when I switched to it. So, I am back to more of an Atkins approach. I read a book recently written by one of Dr. Atkins former associates, who wrote a book called The Hamptons Diet. It is much like Atkins, but more focused on monounsaturated oils/fats. I am giving it a whirl, as my body does not want saturated fat as much lately, but the olive/flax/macadamia nut oils are making me feel better, and I am keepng the carbs at between 45-60, so I can still lose....I am also having more berries/peaches in my carb count as it seems to react better with my system. I can't do all the low carb breads, wraps, etc.
