Yesterday marked 31 days on the South Beach Diet, and overall I think it's been a very positive experience. My peak weight loss happens to have been the last day, when I ended 21 pounds lighter than when I started. However, I first hit 20 pounds of weight loss 10 days ago. Then again 7 days ago. Last weekend, I "slipped" a little, but got back to 20 pounds down yesterday.
Hopefully I've broken through that plateau -- although I have a wedding (and reception) to go to this weekend, so we'll see.
Overall the experience has been very positive -- not just the adding holes to my belt loops and not being able to wear my jeans anymore, but also the change in energy levels, blood pressure and the reduction in overall aches and pains. And of course, the side benefits in the kitchen. I walked into the kitchen last night at 9 to get the boys their bedtime snack and could still smell the rosemary that had gone over the veggies at dinner.
