George hates to shop. Actually, so do I. So, when we go out on a major shopping trip, I know we'll be tempted by any excuse to stop - like eating lunch. It's tough to stick to our eating plan when we're grabbing a quick bite at the food court or the mall restaurant, so we've devised a solution. We pack a picnic basket (really a cooler) with easy, nutritious food like cold turkey or chicken, sliced cheese (Lite Jarlsberg is good), apples (on Phase Two), nuts, and bottles of water. It's great to go out to the car, turn on some music or the news, and relax with our picnic. Sometimes, we just head home afterward, but once in awhile, we actually hit the stores again with more energy. ~ Louise

Beach Ready
Who says it can't be fun and easy to lose weight and get in shape? We think it can. We think of it as living an active, nutritious life-style, rather than 'dieting' and 'working out'. Kind of like livin' on the beach. This weblog presents a common-sense approach to diet and exercise, based, in part, on the South Beach Diet. We post ideas almost daily, so check back often and share your comments. We support each other. And, if you sign up for e-mail reinforcement, we'll help you stay motivated and focused on your goals.
