Fruit or No Fruit

Well, we are told we need so much fruit in our daily diets. But you do have to remember...not Every Body is alike. Take mine for instance. My husband and I started the South Beach diet January 1st (officially) and the first two weeks is no fruit or any sugar of any kind. No white stuff like flour, pasta or breads or rice. After that you can start introducing things back in. That first two weeks I lost 8 lbs right off the bat. Then I continued the first two weeks cycle so I could lose more and I did. Well at 12-13 lbs loss I leveled off and that is where the weight remained after introducing the Step 2 process. This got me to thinking that maybe the fruit was affecting my progress. Well, once again I've cut out the fruit and WALLA!!! The scale is moving downward.

The point of all this is not to give up on your goals. I so wanted to figure out why I couldn't lose weight and for me it was in doing what the health experts are telling us what we need to do. So it doesn't always work for Every Body. I thought Corn was my only demon to avoid. So until I get that slender look again, I will have to be selective on my fruit plate.
