The South Beach Diet
The Delicious, Doctor-designed, Foolproof Plan for Fast and Healthy Weight Loss South Beach Dietby Agatston, Arthur S.
Description:
The South Beach Diet, by Miami cardiologist Dr. Arthur Agatston, is intended for quick weight loss, but it is really based on permanently changing the way one eats. The diet's initial phase, which lasts two weeks, is a detox mode, emphasizing the total avoidance of certain foods, including potatoes and sugar. Dr. Agatston guides the dieter through this period with encouraging and useful information on cravings, as well as menus that include healthy alternatives. The second phase returns some foods to the diet, while still controlling portions. The third phase is a maintenance plan, designed to keep off the weight that's been lost, and to keep the dieter on a sensible practice that will lead to lifelong health and fitness. The South Beach Diet promotes the awareness of good fats and good carbs based on the glycemic index, and includes recipes plus a wealth of useful information on healthy living and a suggestion that exercise should not be neglected.

The book makes it easy to follow the diet, The recipes are also easy to follow and they are also tasty. But before you get to the diet ,it explains all about the food you can have and the ones you cant and why. it is a good book.

This book was nearly impossible to find around here! I thought it was great to be able to order online and have it shipped directly to my home for such a great price! I have been on the diet now for a couple of weeks and have lost 6 pounds! It is a life long diet--not just a fad! Try it for yourself and watch the pounds melt away!

I've been overweight for several years now. Didn't have the desire or willpower to actually diet. This plan rocks! After the first two weeks, it's just eating healthy and paying attention to what goes into your mouth. Not starvation but good eating. Do this, you'll be glad - I'm down 12 pounds without a ton of effort!
