About this product

Product Information

For years, cardiologist Arthur Agatston, M.D., urged his patients to lose weight for the sake of their hearts, but every diet was too hard to follow or its restrictions were too harsh. Some were downright dangerous. Nobody seemed to be able to stick with low-fat regiments for any length of time. And a diet is useless if you can't stick with it. So Dr. Agatston developed his own. The South Beach Diet isn't complicated and doesn't require that you go hungry. You'll enjoy normal size helpings of meat, poultry, and fish. You'll also eat eggs, cheese, nuts, and vegetables. Snacks are required. You'll learn to avoid the bad carbs, like white flour, white sugar, and baked potatoes. Best of all, as you lose weight, you'll lose that stubborn belly fat first! Dr. Agatston's diet has produced consistently dramatic results (8 to 13 pounds lost in the first 2 weeks!) and has become a media sensation in South Florida. Now you, too, can join the ranks of the fit and fabulous with The South Beach Diet.

South Beach Diet Books
I was hoping the cookbook would have some of the same recipes the original book has, but it doesn't. It's a good thing I made copies of the recipes I wanted from the books I borrowed from the library. I haven't looked through the cookbook yet to see if there are recipes in there I'm equally interested in. I'm sure there must be.

Great unit!
I had been trying to loose an extra 10 pounds for 5 years and then a friend recommended this book, outlining the South Beach Diet. This is such a helpful book and here's why: Dr. A wrote the book to help you day by day. You'll never have to wake up and wonder what to eat. He gives you menus, recipies and recommendations from other dieters. He also gives you the science of why it works and reference charts so you can adapt your own tastes to the diet. It's also great because if you fall off the diet a bit, he'll get you back on plan. He even tells you how to order at a restaurant. I read the book, followed the diet about 90% of the time and lost 12 pounds in 5 weeks. I eventually lost the cravings for bad carbs and felt so healthy!

I then passed the book to my Mom and she lost the same amount of weight. I just had a baby and plan to jump right back on the South Beach Diet. If you buy this book, you will use it every day on your diet. I've never bought any other diet guides, but mine is right next to my stove, is bookmarked and has sauce all over it! It's sooo worth it!

Good overall information
My doctor recommended this book and diet for my husband and son who both have high cholesterol. Since I do at least half of the cooking it was important for me to read it and understand it. I found the book to be easily understood and well-written. The diet is not too difficult to follow in terms of it being logical and not one that leaves the average person feeling hungry. There is a companion book available and, in my opinion, needed to help with following through on the diet, but not needed to understand the overall diet. Because of this I rate it as Good rather than Excellent. Most people expect to use the one book alone. The companion book is called The South Beach Diet Good Eats Good Carbs Guide and is also by Arthur S. Agatston, M.D. I would recommend reading the book to ...

Agatston, M.D. I would recommend reading the book to most people whether or not they plan to follow the diet. It has some good information about healthy eating and today's knowledge of carbs. On the other hand, I don't recommend the diet for everyone based on what our family doctor explained to my husband and son. He said it is a good diet, but is definitely not for everyone trying to lose weight. So as most cautions say, "check with your doctor first".

South Beach Diet
I bought the South Beach Diet book because I have been on medication for many years for high cholesterol and high blood pressure. I also had gained a lot of weight and am afraid of getting diabetes which runs in my family. I started the SB diet on Jan. 3 and lost ten pounds so far. The only thing that I dislike about the book is that Dr. A. has pre-set menu plans and he does not offer any substutions or options. For example I do not eat fish at all and he did not offer advice on the what to eat in its place. The other thing I did not care for was that most of the three meals a day required preparation (recipes for them are in the book). I tried to follow the ones I liked more often and just tried to improvise using the basic principals trying to choose low glycemic index foods. Using ...

I tried to follow the ones I liked more often and just tried to improvise using the basic principals trying to choose low glycemic index foods. Using the low GI, good carb/bad carb principals in diet can help you loose weight, it can help stabilize blood sugars, and also help prevent heart disease. My husband who had a heart attack and quad bypass surgery in March 07 was just told by his cardiologist to go on the South Beach Diet too. There is also another good book written prior to SB diet by Dr. Richard Podell called something like the Glycemic Index Factor (I got it from the library and not sure of the title now)It has more info and better menu choices so it is easier to follow in my opinion.

The South Beach Diet Makes Good Sense - Mostly
I bought this copy as a replacement for one I had loaned out. I didn't buy the original copy for weight loss, but because I was curious about the science behind this theory of dieting. It first appeared as just another fad diet, but if one keeps in mind that the initial carbohydrate-free period should be only temporary, the book may offer an understanding of the overload most of us devour in the form of unhealthy carbohydrates and its effects on our bodies, as well as how to combat this. I attempted to stay on the recommended diet along with my husband, but found that I could not tolerate the lack of carbohyrdrates as well as he. Moving along to the next levels more quickly than he worked much better for my lightweight build. But for people who need to lose weight and move toward a ...

Moving along to the next levels more quickly than he worked much better for my lightweight build. But for people who need to lose weight and move toward a healthier way of eating without forever feeling as though they are missing out, this seems to be a reasonable way to do it. The book is written clearly and is easy to follow, and though the author backs up what he claims scientifically, the reader is not overloaded with medical language he cannot understand. The recipes in this volume and in the companion cookbook are truly tasty and practical. Most recipes call for using easily obtained grocery items and staples, rather than hard-to-find specialty foods. My family enjoyed nearly all of the recipes we tried and didn't miss the extra sugar. It's worth a look.
