 South Beach Diet works miracles! May 27, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I went on the South Beach Diet in November 2005. In one year I went from weighing 280 lbs to weighing 215! My cholesterol went from 221 to 141,and my blood pressure went from 150/100 to 117/77 (with NO drugs). Also I lost 6 inches around my waist. It went from 42 inches to 36.As of May 2008, I currently weigh 212 (at 5' 11') and am trying to work my way to 195 now.I own all of the books and am one of the biggest advocates of the diet. I would recommend this book to anyone!
Lost the 10 pounds I needed to lose May 19, 2008
I wasn't obese or even "fat" before I started the diet, but I had a gut that I wasn't too proud of. The gut wasn't even that bad, but I wanted to lose it. I bought this book and set a target weight loss of 10 pounds.
The first phase was tough because I am not used to a no-carb diet. I kind of got sick of steak, chicken and salmon easily, as well as balsamic vinigarette (however you spell that). The recipes are pretty good and give a lot of taste with very little to choose from.
After the first week and a half, I lost the 10 pounds I aimed for and now I am happily in the 2nd phase and I still cheat every couple of days.
I find that this diet pushes more "control" over what you eat. Although I am 2nd phase, I have had fries a couple of times, but in very small quantities and I don't feel guilty and I don't feel hungry either.
This diet also got me to start using more spices in what I cook. Now I have about 3 different spices on my steak or burger just for the fun of it.
I think I am going to stay in "phase 2" for as long as possible because I feel very comfortable in it. If I "cheat" once in a while, I think I;ll be fine. I lost the weight and I am keeping it off (so far).
I highly recommend this diet plan if you need to change your eating habits and want to shed a few pounds at the same time.
Easy to follow diet outline April 8, 2008

This a great, easy to follow diet that doesn't feel like a diet. It's more about food education than it is weight loss, but the weight loss happens.
Good book - not a diet a lifestyle change! April 2, 2008

They really shouldn't call it a diet, because it isn't. Its just a better way to eat and it easily achievable by anyone!
Similar to Atkins but I'll stick to Atkins March 14, 2008

Some great ideas in it but a little to liberal for me, as I'm an Atkins fan. Still, if you're willing to be more liberal, then this is the book for you.
