I am a firm believer in low carb diets.  They really have worked for me, Debily too.  South Beach rocks!  I have just heard about a new diet.  Well, more of a lifestyle than a diet.  South Beach is a lifestyle as well, but I digress.

This is the last of the South Beach updates for awhile.  We are in transition from the South Beach Diet to the chemotherapy diet.  I should be on the chemo diet for somewhere between 4 - 6 months.  If I still need to lose weight after that, I will go back onto the South Beach [...]

What do you get when you cross the apathy diet, the coping diet, and Thanksgiving?  Weight gain.  How much?  Enough.  The chemo diet had better pull me through….Yikes!  I get the port installed on Teusday and first treatment the following Monday.

Yes, this South Beach update is six days late.  Ask me if I care.  The beachhead is secure, the front is miles away.  So business at the beachhead is normal.  We don’t war here, we just plan wars.  So my plan is to rely on chemotherapy to help fight this battle.  It may not complete [...]

I weighed myself this morning and I was a half pound down.  Not anymore after tonight’s meal.  I have not kept the entire South Beach diet the last month or so due to cancer and vacation.  I keep hoping that chemotherapy will take off the rest of the weight.  I may have a few South [...]

Okay last week I completely forgot to post a South Beach update.  Uhmmm….I have lost the weight gained during the trip, but not anything more.  So, for the last month or so I have pretty much maintained weight.

The beachhead is secured.  The diet is going well.  I have, at one point, lost 30 pounds.  I have no idea where I am at right now.  Do you really think I brought the scale with me on vacation?  Lemme see….this week I have had fried shrimp, fried fish, french fries, rolls, baked potato, pasta, [...]

We are storming he beach, literally!  We arrived tonight, after an eleven hour drive, at our vacation destination:  South Padre Island, Texas.  This is out third time down here as a family, and we do like it.  The condo is great and the weather has been fairly cooperative the times we have been here.  One [...]

What do you get when you cross the South Beach diet with the coping diet?  This past week.  This past week I bottomed out with a total weight loss of 30 pounds!  Yeah.  I gained all 30 back this week.  Well, the wheels did not fall completely off, but it was a tough week.  The [...]

Intelligence continues to gather more information on our latest enemy.  The battle continues.  Progress is being made, just much slower.  This week, we have lost one and a half pounds.  It is progress, just slow progress.  We are also just one pound away from reaching the halfway point in this battle.  The good news to [...]
