How many times do you cheer for a diet? Phase 2 South Beach Diets here we come! Now that you’ve finished Phase 1, your body is prepared for the rest of the diet.
Phase 2 is the longest phase. It takes as long as is needed to accomplish your weight loss goals. How long will this last? It’s different for different people.
If you “cheat,” it will take longer. If you don’t follow the instructions, you’ll add weeks onto the length.
It also depends on your body. How does it respond to the diet? What sort of exercises are you doing in addition? Are you drinking plenty of water?
With Phase 1 you jump-started your diet. You probably lost somewhere between 8 and 13 pounds. You also trained yourself to skip the sweets and carbs. By now you’re probably used to eating better. Usually people don’t crave the bad stuff by the time they get to Phase 2.
Phase 2 South Beach Diet is more individualized. You will be adding a few ingredients back into the diet. It is less restrictive, but you’ll need to listen to your body.
The South Beach diet isn’t a simple one. I believe there are other diets out there that can offer the same weight loss but eithout the extra pain.
I have successfully lost 170lbs, reduced my blood pressure from 160/110 to 120/80 and droped my waist size from 48 to 38 inch over the last 1.5 years. The best thing is, I didn’t use fad diet or medication. The trick is to gain real and useful knowledge about how the body work, how to kill cravings etc. It is not that hard if you really want to know how to do it.
