quick south beach diet shopping list

• A lot of eggs! (at least two dozen. I ate 3 a day)
• Turkey and Canadian bacon
• Sugar free Jell-O
• Lettuce & whatever else you want in your salads (buy enough for the week)
• Salad dressing (balsamic vinaigrette is good)
• Veggies (no carrots) (broccoli & zucchini are good)
• Chicken breasts and whatever other meat you like (spam doesn't count as meat, not even low-sodium spam)
  
• Nuts (for snacks)
• Low fat string cheese & shredded cheese (I use it on my salads)
• Part-skim ricotta cheese
  
• Splenda or other sugar substitute

if you want to start on phase 1 and don't know what to shop for, here's a quick guide. but first, empty your fridge and pantry of all sweets, starches, and non-allowed fats. goodbye rice, goodbye pasta, goodbye biscuits & cakes, goodbye potatoes & carrots, goodbye crisps and chips!
give them all away so you can start with a clean slate and you won't be tempted to cheat.

the best way to modify your behavior is to change your environment first.

in fact whatever diet you want to follow, be sure that none of the bad foods in the list are inside your home.
