South Beach Diet Rocks!

Hooray for us! As Boaz would say....We did it! We did it!

We each lost more than five pounds and one inch in one week of The South Beach Diet Supercharged ! I've written about it here. The meals are great, the exercise very managable...even for me. What's twenty minutes a day, afterall.

Last nigh't dinner was a very fun Chicken Meatloaf with Mushrooms & Beans served with some steamed broccoli (my Honey's lunch today)

And my awesome lunch today...(his tomorrow) was Provencal Bean & Herb Soup (top of post) that took no time at all to prepare....Five minutes to throw it together and less than 20 minutes to cook! How easy is that...not to mention absolutely delicious.

you are so motivating me to go back on it after about 6 months of not so healthy living I think the body needs it!

That's AWESOME! I may have to revisit my South Beach book to see what's involved again... I need a jumpstart!

Congrats Ruth! You're making me think I could lose 5 pounds too. It would be a good start to the 40 I need to drop.

And that soup really does look delicious.

That bean soup looks mighty tasty!

Thanks all, for dropping by and the good wishes.

As for the soup...I'd eat it even if I wasn't on a diet ;-)
