Low carber for years .. trying to get my husband to eat better. I also have children so I thought I’d start doing south beach type meals for the whole family (I usually sub the carbs for something else like zucchini instead of pasta)

I picked up some stuff on it and ...
assimilation just like the borg .
Can they even call it the same anymore? :(.

    I went to the website and it seems like now they ship you food? I did see they were bought by Nutrisystem several years ago so I guess that's what's going on.

    I would just find and old copy of the book or a website detailing the original plan and follow that. Though the one change from the 2003 book I liked was adding full fat dairy in place of low fat or skim! Honestly I think the original plan was pretty reasonable especially for people who didn't want to be extreme keto or Atkins.

    Agreed on dairy... I don’t know what they do to it between low fat and no fat but my taste buds suspect it’s school glue 😂

    Agree on full fat dairy. Skim milk is basically sugar water that doesn't fill you up, IMHO. I'm a half & half junkie. I put it on everything.
