The south beach diet = one way ticket to hell

I started the south beach diet 6 days ago. It sucks ass. Really, it does. Everything that I am allowed to eat sounds absolutely disgusting to me right now, I can't even imagine how I am going to feel on day 12. My only hope is that by day 12 I will so strung out on my sugar withdrawal that I will be only semi-conscious, with no understanding of reality.
But I finally just got it - this is the way you lose weight on the sb diet: for the first 5 days salad is your best friend. YUM! Salad with salmon on top. Tasty! Salad with grilled chicken on top. Even better...Bean salad with a side of regular salad. Feeling crazy? How about broccoli slaw and bean salad with some sliced tofu? Hungry for dessert? No problem, have this very small plastic container of sugar free jello. Wait, you feel like chocolate? How about a sugar free fudgsicle the size of a toothpick? Sounds great, right? Totally doable! But then after you have had every single salad imaginable and then some, it gets really boring. So boring it is maddening. But not mad in the "Damn it, I'm just going to cheat and have a chocolate chip cookie!!" kind of way, more mad in the "SB You suck ass! I am going to beat you! Take this SB!" And then you just don't eat anything. Why bother? Food? A waste of time. I am too busy complaining and starving to death on this stupid diet to find time to eat something!
I did it 5 years or so and for some reason had no problem doing it, or at least that is what my memory tells me. But then again I know people who had a baby 5 years ago and don't think the entire pregnancy and birthing thing was excruciatingly painful.
