So we are officially One month into our diet, it doesn't seem like it has been that long, but I the calendar doesn't lie! So here is our update. I'm down a pant size and 15 lbs. and Landon is down 10 lbs. For a month I would say not to shabby.
My goal for the next month will be 8-10 lbs. and Landon's will probably be about the same as mine. I was nervous about Thanksgiving with all the temptations, especially the desserts. If you know me you probably know that's my downfall, but I did really well. Last week was a 3 lb. drop, so I must have done something right.
I did look up some suggestions on how to not spoil the diet. One was to just take a little bit of what I wanted to eat so I still felt like I could eat what I wanted and enjoy the holiday while not overindulging. The second was a great email that was sent to me with a Pumpkin pie that was suitable for the South Beach diet. It tastes a little sweet but not too much and the crust is out of Phyllo dough, everything added was sugar free. So it turned out nice and we still have one piece to finish eating.
Overall, I'm feeling really good about how we have been doing. Hopefully we can keep the good work up and get down to some really healthy weights and adapt good eating habits in the process!
