8th day on the South Beach WOE and already lost.....

[Fatty]

I been on the South Beach diet before in the past and had great success, only to gain it all back after stopping for like a year. But recently I been taking alot of bodybuilding supplements, such as Creatine, Protien Powder, Nitrix Oxide, and 6 hour energy drink. I work out hard but my stomach never gotten any smaller. I was frustrated and stop all the bodybuilding supplement and started the South Beach WOE.

My starting weight was 191 (Height is 5"5). Today is my 8th day on the SB diet and I lost 7 lbs, I am now 184 . My body fat has gone down 5%. My stomach size has finally flatten down so much, no more fustration only progression! . I feel good and I am going to continue this way of eating for a long long time. Because losing weight is the best thing that happen to me. Thanks for listening and I wish the best for all .

Nice story! Welcome and best wishes through the rest of the process! It won't always be as "easy" as the first week, but hopefully the quick start and the benefits you have seen already will help carry you through the inevitable speed bumps!

I have had similar results to you. I tried the South Beach Diet a couple of years back with good results but then let it slip away. Willpower was the problem. Got a little more to battle with this time as I have also stopped smoking. Thanks for your story. Its nice to realise there are others like me that have now succeded

That's a great story! Very inspiring. I also way 193 and have been struggling with my weight loss. I have bounced back and forth from 190-193 lbs. I know everyone's results are different but I hope I see the same results as you. Today is my first day of phase 1. I'm excited about it but nervous as well because I want to make sure I am doing it right. Another obstacle is that I am not the greatest cook.

Do you do any type of exercise a long with the SBD? What do you do?
