Poo to South Beach
3Jun2010 Posted by: Nikki Filed under: BlogAs I sit here and type, my girlfriends that are doing the South Beach Diet with me have all lost in between 6-8 pounds, as of yesterday.
Wanna know how much I’ve lost? 2. I lost those two pounds while I was sick, as well, so I’m assuming it was because I wasn’t eating, and spent a whole lot of time in the bathroom.
I’m fit and healthy already, I just happen to be carrying a little more weight than I’m comfortable with. It looks like losing that weight is going to be doubly hard for me. Where my friends started dropping weight right away, mine hasn’t budged. In fact, when I got on the scales this morning, I had put on a half a kilogram. I’ve been eating so well and exercising my heart out. It’s incredibly frustrating.
So my question is, what lengths do women like me – who are muscular, and cardiovascularly already fit – have to go to in order to slim down?
I spy with my little eye, a potential freelance article topic. I wonder if Women’s Health or Shape would be interested in running it?
PROJECT!
Stay tuned for more South Beach success/failures to come.

Not sure how old you are, but I’ve realized the older I get it’s not about shedding pounds.. but more about taking inches off. The scale may stay the same, but your clothes may start to fit different. Try not to be so determined on the numbers. You may see a difference in other things.

Hey Ginger,
I’m 27, and yeah, I’ve noticed that even though the scales are definitely not budging, my clothes are getting looser.
I’m feeling better and better about myself again. I can feel a definite improvement in my fitness, too. I’m working out like a mofo!
