South Beach Diet: Week 4
Current weight: 200 [-11 lbs.]
Well, I'm 4 weeks in, and I couldn't be happer. The pounds keep coming off and I feel great. Here are some of the meals I've been eating:
Breakfasts:
- Cheese EggBeater omelette
- EggBeater omelette with bell peppers
- Regular eggs over easy with canadian bacon
- Instant oatmeal (Not ideal according to the book, but I only have it once in a while to break up the monotony of all the eggs.)
- Coffee and/or V8
Lunches:
- Quizno's honey mustard chicken salad
- Chipotle burrito bol
- Tropical Smoothie - Strawberry-kiwi-low-fat-yogurt smoothie and buffalo chicken wrap
- Panera bread - turkey w/ mozzarella and pesto on whole grain bread, apple
- South Beach Diet box lunches (like Lunchables for adults - these are actually really tasty and come with Jello for dessert. I've had the caesar chicken wraps and the southwest chicken wraps.)
Dinners:
- McDonalds - Club chicken sandwich (toss the bread), side salad w/ vinaigrette dressing
- Seasoned pork chops with mixed veggies, 9-grain bread with spread
- Baked salmon with lemon juice and parmesan cheese, veggies
- Cajun-seasoned catfish with veggies
- Any sit-down restaurant: I usually order some kind of roasted or grilled chicken or maybe a lean steak like sirloin and have them substitute extra veggies for the potato.
Desserts/snacks:
- Sugar-free Jello
- Low-fat string cheese
- Fat-free vanilla yogurt
- Cashews/peanuts
- South Beach Diet snack bars (I've only tried the chocolate/peanut butter ones and they're really good.)
So as you can see I'm not exactly starving. Here's to 4 more weeks of success!
