Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 Hello, I am interested in the South Beach diet but know very little about it. How does it compare with Atkins if at all. I am headed to the bookstore tomorrow to get the South Beach diet book tomorrow but could use all the help I can get. Thanks ELizabeth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 Hi --I have not been on Atkins, but I work with some women who are. From what I have seen and read, the first phase of SOuth Beach is similar to Atkins, but then it is different in that on the Beach you can eat healthy carbs like whole grains and fruits, and fats are healthier. I watch a friend eat lunch--Ranglers with cheese- -and I wonder how that can be good for her. Bacon? Anyway, the book explains it pretty well. I think overall, it is a healthy life style choice.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 , A good way to start is by going back and reading the earlier posts, that really helped me. Will give you some great recipe ideas and get you psyched as people share their success. > Hello, I am interested in the South Beach diet but know very little > about it.

Guest guest Posted January 9, 2004 Report Share Posted January 9, 2004 I want to learn more about how you increased your protein/decreased your carbs. You have me very interested. What is a sample menu for one day like for you? Thanks Chantelle but is doing well on South Beach. It was what his doctor recommended. I don't follow South Beach compleatly. I increased my protein and decreased my carbs. I substituted the good fats for the bad fats and the weight is coming right off. It's working for me. My husband follows South Beach very strictly and it's working for him. Lori Green Director, Turtle Homes Adoptions, NYTTS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
