And then there were 13.

Day 1 of Phase 1 of the South Beach Diet is in the books, 13 more days to go.  In retrospect though, I should have started the diet after I went shopping.  My pantry, at this point, should not be considered South Beach friendly.  Dinner tonight consisted of low sugar baked beans and broiled Tilapia, not horrible, but far from gourmet fare.

Full out shopping will occur tomorrow - but the the question remains, will I force my entire family on my diet in order to make life easier for me?  The kids will want all manner of junk food tomorrow when I take them shopping, but I think that due to my inability to control myself (as soon as a thought of food enters my head, I kind of obsess about it until I can eat - yeah, I know.  Issues) I will try to limit their snacks to fruits and vegetables.  Will see how that goes.

Wish me luck!
