So far the week has gone well. Others on our Living Healthy team at work are interested in doing South Beach as well so we had a lunch meeting yesterday and discussed the diet. I found original SB diet books at Goodwill for about two bucks so I gave one to everyone plus I was able to score a cookbook as well.
South Beach is not really about weighing or measuring food but there are somethings that have limits. For instance cottage cheese should be a half cup. I went out last night and bought some small Rubbermaid containers that hold around a half cup. I don't have to measure in the morning when I am fixing my lunch or worry that I put to much in a bigger container.
I also bought some little tiny plastic cups at Dollar Tree that are basically disposable. I got about twelve of them for a buck so I don't feel so bad about that they hold about 2 tablespoons so I use them for salad dressings.
Once again just pour and be less worried about how much you are actually eating. After you do this a few times you also kind of get an idea about how much a serving actually is.
