New to the Low carb solution

I am 40 and my wife and I started the South beach Diet together on Monday.
It has been hard but I already feel results.
I have allot of weight to lose and think this time I might just be able to
keep it off. I have lost weight before but only through starvation diets..
and every time I ended up bigger than when I started.
I think I can handle this one. I am already getting to where I am not as
hungry.
I work service so it is hard to remember the snacks. Oh yea I have lost 8
lbs since Monday

Thanks
Don

Hi Don!

Awesome work on losing 8lbs since Monday. Good on you.
Any questions, feel free to ask...

I am not south beach diet expert, but I know that eating Atkins induction I
would bring to work as snacks:

-Tuna
-Beef Jerky
-Turkey Jerky
-Cheese
-Pork Rinds.
-Cottage Cheese

I have a desk job but I still bring snacks to avoid the cafeteria or the vending machines.

Usually meat & cheese rolls or today at the grocery I found Carl Budding "snack packs" they are processed meat but only half a carb per serving so I'm going to give them a try -- made sure not to get the "honey" ones.

Sounds like you are on a roll -- my hubby and I weigh in tomorrow so we'll see how its going for us :~)

Great job so far. Fellow SB'er here. The cravings sorta faded for me, didn't
magically disappear. If you are hungry, eat, eat, eat. Just eat what's in
phase 1. Biggest mistake is to let yourself get hungry. Previous post listed
great snack foods.
I would add that I have also enjoyed limited nuts and hard boiled eggs.
