![I’m Starting The South Beach Diet [Burning The Scale]](http://citypeoplefashion.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/11/55270.jpg)
I’ve been doing Atkins for seven months now, and I’ve reached a stall that has lasted at least four. I’ve heard some good things about the South Beach diet, so I’ve decided to start Phase 1 on Monday.
The South Beach diet is focused on “good” fats and carbs and is broken up into three phases. In Phase 1, grains, fruit and alcohol are prohibited. This is where I’m starting tomorrow and will stay there for 2 weeks. Phase 2 allows back some fruit, whole grains, and red wine, and Phase 3 is the maintainance phase that is the most lenient. This is where you would ideally stay for life.
I’d like to lose about 15 pounds, and I’ll keep you updated each Monday. I’m hoping this will break the stall I’ve experienced doing Atkins.
Have any of you tried the South Beach diet? What were your results? Let me know!
