Today is the Big Day!!

Posted March 17, 2008 * Comments(8)

Its Monday morning :)  Today is the day, the big day, the first day into my journey of healthy eating, yet once again.  But what is different about today?  Well this time I WILL SUCCEED!!!

I want to wish my buddy Jo best of luck on her first day of South Beach.  Also to all my other buddys who are following South Beach.

I also want to thank everyone who took time to help me understand and learn about the South Beach Way.  Thank you for the recipes, the food suggestions, etc.  Couldn’t have done it without you.

Was  a horrible weekend here in Michigan.  Starting Friday about 2:00 a.m. the bathroom became my best friend :(  Sick with the flu, need not give details.  Now today, Monday morning I’m left with a nasty head cold.

Come to find out my grandson was coming down with the flu on Thursday when I was visiting.  I only pray my father doesn’t pick up this bug, because its a tough one and he is still so very weak “sigh”

Up this morning at 6:00 a.m

  • Coffee 6 ounces with splenda
  • 7:oo a.m. 6 ounces Low Sodium V8 Juice
  • 9:00 a.m. Egg Beaters with Green onions, Canadian Bacon & reduced fat cheese

So far so good :)  Lunch will probably be a big salad with South Beach Ranch dressing and some turkey breast.  Dinner is planned….Chicken Breast grilled, fresh asparagus, small salad and sugar free jello for desert.  I’ll have 8 ounces fat free milk, my hubby prefers his ice water!!

Wishing everybody a good day…a Happy St. Patricks Day to all!!! LOL!! We had our corned beef and cabbage yesterday, I only had a couple bites, too strong for my poor stomach!!

I’ll need all the prayers I can get!!! Carbs have been my very best friend all my life.  I’m hoping I don’t show my “other” side :(  This will be a challenge for me to stop the breads and potatoes, but I’m sure with my buddys and Gods help I CAN DO THIS!!!

God channels all the power of heaven through the authority of the believer who knows the rights and privileges that belong to him and are found in the name of Jesus.

Bob Yandian

On the basis of faith in His name, it is the name of Jesus which has strengthened this man whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect health in the presence of all.

Acts 3:16
