Starting Week Five of S. Beach!
filed in diet on Nov.24, 2008
This is some kind of record for me—starting the fifth week of the South Beach Diet with no slips so far! Good for me! Don has not ‘slipped’, but he has deliberately allowed himself to have a couple of things due to circumstances. I’ve been fortunate that I’ve not been exposed to any ‘good’ food (uh, that would mean anything with sugar/fat/flour) in the past four weeks. I probably would have cratered and tasted and that would have been the end of the diet for me. Don has more control.
This Thursday will be a real test, though. Relatives are preparing Thanksgiving this year, and the food is always delicious. We will also be away from the safety of home and our kitchen cabinets and refrigerator, which are devoid of anything tasty to tempt us. Like I said, this is going to be a test of our willpower for sure. I am hoping that I will let it be all about the visiting this year, and not about the eating!!!
I wish all of you a happy Thanksgiving this year, spending time with those you love and doing the things you like most to do over the holidays!
