you anything - we promise & it's all free. All we do is put a
wealth of weight-loss information at your finger tips, give you access to experts,

You have nothing to lose, except for that extra weight, of course.
The South Beach DietTM
A Healthy Start
15 of 15 people found this review helpful
I began the diet because I was looking for a healthier way of eating. Many diseases run in my family- including heart disease and diabetes. This diet seemed to suit me. I was pleasantly surprised when I lost 12 lbs in two weeks. The food was great and I felt healthier. The diet gave me a new way to look at food and eating. I never was hungry- in fact you eat about 5-6 times a day. Cutting down carbs reduced my hunger too. Almost 2 years later, I'm 30 lbs lighter and in the best shape ever!

So Satisfying!

I've been following this life-style now for 2 years, and have lost close to 100lbs! It completely cuts out cravings for sweets & keeps you full and satisfied without feeling deprived. I have found a new life! It's worth a try!

This diet changed my life
11 of 12 people found this review helpful
I started the diet 12/5/05 and as of 11/9/06 I have lost 90 lbs. I'm healthier than I've ever been and all of my blood work is normal. There was no weighing, measuring or counting which made this very easy to follow and stick with.

Reduced Carb Dilemma
9 of 10 people found this review helpful
No matter what the book says, this is a reduced carb diet. The plus side is that it's very healthy and easy to follow. And reducing your sugar keeps cravings to a minimum. But gosh darn it I want bread and butter sometimes! I did this for about a year and half then switched to weight watchers so I could eat some of my favorite foods again.

I was never a healthy eater... and was fortunate to be able to eat everything and not gain weight. than I hit 40, and all that changed:) the south beach diet really changed my eating habits; proved that carbs just make you more hungry and bloated; and taught me the basics of good nutrition. I know read labels, started buying more healthy foods & choices; no more yodels every week for me or my family.

Excuse the aggressive rave title but seriously, I lost a considerable amount of weight and have been told my pants look great on me from a 360 degree view! The South Beach Diet got me ready for the beach for the first time in a decade.

This diet is really working for me, because
the carb cravings go away! And in Level two, I can always find a way to have the foods I love. Even level one wasn't so painful, I love eggs, and I had a riccota desert almost every night, which I really liked. I lost 8 pounds in 10 days, and it is still coming off.
I like it much better than low-fat deits, which always left em starving and craving sugar and carbs. It's a healthy way to eat.

When I went on the SB Diet I couldn't believe how fast the weight dropped! My doctor was extremely impressed by the overall results I experienced. I feel this is a healthy way of eating for life.

Portion control is not a priority for this diet, and it should be. Otherwise, a person trying to lose weight is likely to yoyo between phase 2 and 3 forever. It's very easy to gain weight back if portion control is not taught.

South Beach Rocks

I went on this diet when i wanted to skinny down for my summer bikini bod.... i am a generally in-shape person but wanted to be extra toned for the kick of f of beach season. The only downside to this diet is the alcohol restriction. Other than that, the diet is easy to follow with great/simple recipes and snacks. Love it!

Atkins was too heavy
4 of 11 people found this review helpful
I wasn't as much a fan of the Atkins diet. I have tried quite a few diet options out there. I am not a huge meat fan and this diet had very few vegetarian options that were easy to find in the "real world". I ended up quitting this diet after only one week.
