Although I'm doing South Beach, which let's you have a few whole grain, non processed carbs. I'm down 40 lbs. and feel great! My doctor is ecstatic about my blood work, too! I would love to lose 60 more, but not going to put too much pressure on myself.

I have found that I truly don't miss potatoes, bread or pasta anymore. They taste really bland now.

I also started drinking a lot more water (up to 100 oz. a day) and I drink coffee only in the morning. Haven't had soda in a long time.

Congrats on your weight loss!
