South Beach Diet

Options
Hi,

Has anyone ever heard or tried the "south beach diet"?

A friend of mine told me about it so i went and purchased the book. It seems like it would be easy and very effiective.

Any advice?

    I disagree.
    It's not particularly low carb. It's more...slow carb, smart carb.

    The two weeks of forced weaning of sugar are tough (that's all I did, and why I know about the diet).
    After that, it's sensible grains, lots of vegs, lean proteins, fruit...
    It's not a bad way to learn how to eat at all.

    The bottom line is: avoid the white crappy carbs. It's a low crap diet. :-)
