It is officially 2010, and I have decided that I have got to restart my South Beach Diet! I did, after all, lose 40 lbs on it the first time! I have gained some weight since moving out here to California, and my goal is going to be for the next time I fly home. I want to go home and have people say, "Wow! California is treating you well! You look great!" Another reason for wanting to lose weight is to lessen the possibility of getting diabetes. If I continue on my current path, I am confident that I will get diabetes, and I REFUSE for that to happen. Yet another reason for wanting to lose is that I want to look and feel better in my clothes. I have lots of reasons, but my most recent one is thinking about the fact that I do want to have children someday, and I don't want to have to worry about my weight hindering my chances when we do make that decision.
My husband is going to do this with me. He is really excited because he loves all of the foods we eat when we SBD! As long as he will mostly stick with it for about a week, I know that I can get back on track and stay on track. I want to start either tomorrow or Sunday. If I start tomorrow, I will have to run to the grocery store after I eat breakfast to insure that I have food for the rest of the week. I will let you know when I am starting tomorrow!
Moved from my old weight loss blog! Thought I would start anew!
