A hellish week was had by all...

[angel_grace]

This week has completely and utterly sucked. I have an upper respiratory infection (which was only officially diagnosed yesterday), so I've had an absolutely horrid, phlegmy cough since the weekend. I'm on antibiotics now, and I think they're starting to help, but I still feel pretty much like crap

I don't have recipe suggestions but I do have a diet one. The Doctors told my mom to do it, so I am too. It's The South Beach Diet. I avoided it like the plague for the longest time because I thought it'd be another one of those stupid trendy diets, but after Mom being in the hospital we checked it out and it's actually logical! It works in three phases, Phase 1 is strictest and lasts 2 weeks, then Phase 2 is a little less strict and lasts about 2 more weeks and then Phase 3 is how you should eat for the rest of your life and has no guidelines really, just to keep in mind what you learned from the book. Which explains it way better than me. The best part, I'm not hungry. I eat Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner, plus 2 snacks and a Dessert, all without cheating, or minimal cheating, and it still works! I started Monday and have since lost like 7 pounds.
