South Beach Diet (.com)
South Beach Diet online is an online community designed to help you to lose weight using the South Beach Diet. Here you will find all the instructions, recipes, support, and forums to teach you how to use the South Beach Diet for losing weight and maintaining that weight loss.
If you really want to lose weight, all you have to do is really follow this diet plan! I know you have all heard of low carb diets, and possibly you've heard about the unhealthy side effects, especially a high fat in-take. That is the Atkins-style low carb diet. South Beach is a lot different.
Starting with Phase 1, which can last from two weeks to three months, depending on how much weight you have to lose, carbohydrates - including fruit - are completely eliminated. I know this sounds drastic, but in my experience, this is the Magic Bullet: once you stop eating carbs, you stop craving them.
Now that you have your cravings completely under control, you can move on to Phase 2, which means you will be adding some healthy carbs such as whole wheat pasta and some fruits. On Phase 2 you should continue to lose weight at a healthy rate until you've reached your goal.
Phase 3 is meant to help you maintain your weight loss. You now have the freedom to add even more carbs (only healthy ones, of course) but still you are learning to eat nourishing foods in sensible portion sizes.
There are many features on the site that make this diet easy to follow.
1.Your own personalized meal plan and shopping lists to go with it.
2. A place to keep a journal.
3. A weight tracker.
4. Forums
5. Recipes
6. Ask a nurtritionist.
Being on the South Beach Diet means eating healthy, feeling energetic, and, best of all, losing weight!

The South Beach Diet is different than the Atkins Diet.....I believe it's safer. I purchased the South Beach Diet book and the diet seems simple enough to follow. My problem is cutting carbs, because I love pasta, rice, etc. I do believe this diet is one of the best available. Thanks for the information.
South Beach has many many fans. along with their books and .com presence, their foods are available in most supermarkets nationwide. This makes it much easier for people to follow their weight loss program.
The no carb thing would kill me...I'm such a carb lover! This sounds great for people that can have more self control than I.
Thanks for the information. I am currently on Weight Watchers right now and it is working for me. I enjoy reading how other diet plans are working for others though. Good review.
I think you explained this weight loss program very well. Honestly, I'm the worst offender when it comes to carbs! I NEED pasta!! :-)
This does sounds easy enough for those that have the will power to cut the carbs.
Thanks for the review!
Great review. I had wondered about the South Beach Diet.. You never know if something is just a fad or not. But your review was very informative. I think I might give it a shot. Thanks!
I have picked up a few of the South Beach frozen foods & they are quite god!! It sounds like you are seeing results from this-congratulations!
Good review. Thanks for the information. I voted for it.
I have been thinking of trying this thanks for the information!
I've never tried the South Beach diet. The phases make sense and sound easy to follow as far as what you are need to do (doing it woud be more difficult ;) ) Making a shopping list and keeping a journal are very helpful to any weightloss plan.
I want to lost weight and surely I will check this website out, Thanks for sharing with us.
