Getting onto South Beach

Well, WW didn't work for me this time. I was always hungry....so South Beach here I come! I have a friend who lost a lot of weight on SB and recommended that I try it. This month I have had 2 doctors tell me in no uncertain terms to LOSE the spare tire. It's great having a buddy to try new recipes with, to talk to for advice and to commiserate with when you get dejected.  We both started this on Thursday and I have already lost weight and some of the belly fat. I am totally psyched. The first two weeks with no sugar, no carbs, no fruit are tricky...but it is doable. The one thing I have noticed is that I am NOT hungry on this diet..correction...my friend says it's a way of life ...not a diet. I will post my menus here by week and hope it might help someone else.
