yammers:
why don't you just skip phase 1 and go to 2 then? if you're excercising, SB suggests skipping 1 anyways. i use Kalyn's website for recipes all the time.

great idea!!

Oh, I'm also modifying it with the Prevention Flat Belly Diet. It's similar but doesn't force you to cut out all carbs and actaully allows whole grain fibers and fruit.

i'm rereading s.b. this week... and getting back on the bandwagon asap... but i believe honey is not allowed for the first 2 phases at least and possibly not for the 3rd either... but another option is agave syrup.

i wanted to share this blog with you too, she's got a ton of ideas and recipes :) http://kalynskitchen.blogspot.com/2007/12/getting-started-on-south-beach-diet.html

what phase are you in? i don't use any honey or sugar, if i need a sweetener I use splenda. honey/raw sugar = high glycemic simple carb.
