5.0 out of 5 stars Heaven Sent!, March 3, 2008

By	Ashley West "Westie" (Friday Harbor, WA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The South Beach Diet - The Delicious, Doctor-designed, Foolproof Plan For Fast And Healthy Weight Loss (Hardcover)

I bought this book after two of my coworkers went on this diet and both lost 12 lbs in 2 weeks. I've been following the program for a little over a week and have lost 7 lbs already! The best part about it is I FEEL healthier and more energetic. This is not so much a diet as a new lifestyle. I was crazy addicted to a lot of unhealthy things but this book ahowed me how to have things I love but in a healthier way. I've never felt deprived as the plan allows (in fact, encourages) eating all through the day. I am finally losing the pounds that run-of-the-mill deit and excercise couldn't budge after years of effort. I Couldn't be happier!

5.0 out of 5 stars Energize yourself with the South Beach nutritional plan!, May 9, 2009

By	nan c (West Virginia) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The South Beach Diet - The Delicious, Doctor-designed, Foolproof Plan For Fast And Healthy Weight Loss (Hardcover)

I wish this was not called a diet. This book is a terrific guide to healthy eating and cuts through the fads of the previous 30 years to the bottom line of nutritional eating. Dr. Agatston has certainly done his homework in the area of nutrition and presents facts and studies to back his findings. There is so much misinformation out there, if you REALLY want to know what is best for your health then take the time to study his materials. He also lets you know that nutrition is an ongoing study for him and he will "tweak" his diet if something new is learned.
I especially love the recipes, many of which were devised by well known chefs in the Miami area. The meals are so good they are like eating at a five star restaurant. They do take a little time at first but you will learn short cuts to preparation. Example: I fix several chicken breasts ahead of time, cut them up and freeze them for quick additions to salads, sandwiches etc. My husband and I no longer enjoy eating out very much because our food is so much better tasting, more nutritious and satisfying.
This is a great book to get started on the South Beach Diet. Do not stop here. Order his other books as well. He does add much more information. I believe I have read everything he has written and most of his books have recipes you will enjoy.
If you have had it with fads (get the truth about low fat) and want the best nutrition this South Beach Diet is for you. Enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars The South Beach Diet, September 16, 2009

By	A. Roller "Country Girl" (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The South Beach Diet - The Delicious, Doctor-designed, Foolproof Plan For Fast And Healthy Weight Loss (Hardcover)

I really like this book and diet. The explaination of the diet in the beginning of the book helps one understand why the diet works.

The menus are simple and delicious. Some are a little time consuming at first, however, I have been making most of my own food for a month now and have cut down on prep time significantly. I am learning to substitute from the lists of foods the book provides to add variety to my menus.

In a 4 week's time I have dropped 12 pounds and for me, that is fantastic because extra pounds think I'm their best friend!

I highly recommend the diet and the book.
