I'm not sure if this is the right group for this diet. My doctor just put me on it because I'm a type II diabetic and I really have no idea where to begin. Advice?

    Several thoughts:
    The south beach diet is based on the mediterranean diet, so the folks in that group may be helpful (I'm one).
    I like the structure of South Beach for mediterranean style eating (the limiting of added sugars may help you as well).

    Two: My library has a Mediterranean Diet for Dummies book.
    Three: http://oldwayspt.org/resources/heritage-pyramids/mediterranean-diet-pyramid
    I love this web site.

    Good luck!

    Good luck with whatever you do. A Med style diet (south beach or otherwise) is not hard!
    South Beach makes it even easier!
    If Clean Eating appeals to you, that's totally doable with an old school Med Style diet or the South Beach version.
