Last year my Dr told me I really needed to start losing weight. I've never had a Dr tell me that before. That very week I joined a gym. I am setting 25lb goals for myself and have now lost 28lbs. I'm doing it all by myself, just watching what I am eating and exercising. No special diets! I'm pretty proud of myself.

My ultimate goal is to lose 100-110lbs.

Buttermilk Biscuits

feeds@kickapps.com (MayDay02) — Fri, 16 Jan 2009 16:21:23 PST

I made these yesterday right when I got out of bed to have for breakfast. OMG, with a little butter and jam on top... they were heavenly! Not only that but, they were very easy and only took about 10 min to throw together!

2 cups all-purpose flour

2 1/4 teaspoons baking powder

3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

1/3 cup shortening

3/4 cup buttermilk

1 stick of butter, melted and divided in half

In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients. Cut in shortening until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in buttermilk and half of the melted butter just until moistened. Turn onto a lightly floured surface. Flatten with floured hands 3/4in thick; cut with a floured 2-1/2in. to 3in. biscuit cutter. Place 1 in. apart on an ungreased baking sheet. Bake at 450 degrees F for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush with remaining melted butter. Serve warm.

I am Day2 of Phase 1 and I think I am doing good. It is really strict! Has anyone had any success with this. I have the South Beach SUPERCHARGED book and it seems hard but I hope I can do it.

I started Phase 1 on Sunday 10/5/08. I weighed 156lbs. 7 days later I weigh 150. Wow, I love it! I may try to do Phase 1 an extra week making it 3 weeks for me.
