South Beach #2

OK. Since kind of starting South Beach I've realized a couple things. 1-I really hate to cook. 2-I've spent so many years eating 2 the point of being completely stuffed that I seriously don't know what it means 2 just not be hungry but not full/stuffed. It's been a week & I lost 4 1/2 lbs but for like a month b4 I started I was eating whatever I wanted cuz I knew I was starting & I thought it would be the end of happiness. So I gained 10-12 lbs. So I'm glad I'm 4 1/2 down but not exactly celebrating. Another thing I've realized is that South Beach is just not gonna work 4 me. I know, I barely gave it a chance. Maybe if I had a personal chef I could do it but I think I'm gonna try more to focus on portion control, which is really what matters in the end. Like 2day, I got Burger King but instead of my usual medium w/a Dr. Pepper I got a small w/a Diet Coke. Baby steps right? I know I'm gonna have setbacks & frustrations & days where I sit there & eat a whole raw pie crust by myself (gross, right? I know, but so good.) but as long as I don't go back to my old cheese fries & blue cheese/donut/Oreo/mozzarella stick/chocolate/chocolate/chocolate once-a-day eating ways, I'll be OK.
