By Donald Mitchell HALL OF FAME TOP 500 REVIEWER VINE™ VOICE
Format:Paperback
The South Beach diet was like a miracle for me. After several years of unsuccessful weight loss attempts on tiny caloric diets, the weight just dropped off me with the South Beach diet.

I originally memorized some foods that I could always count on to be low fat and low glycemic. Over time, my wife would ask me if I could have food X or Y. Since this question always came up at the grocery store or in a restaurant, I couldn't answer her . . . because my copy of the South Beach diet was at home.

I also found that I couldn't remember very well what a portion was without constantly referring to the original book. That was frustrating too.

The South Beach Diet Good Fats Good Carbs Guide proved to be a solution to all of these problems. It has all the information I want about what foods to eat and which to avoid . . . and what a portion size is. Whew! With this guide, the South Beach Diet becomes even easier . . . and tastier too. A lot of foods that I had been avoiding are actually all right on the diet.

The size of this book will fit into almost any purse and jacket pocket. It will even fit into a hip pocket (but it won't be very comfortable to sit on).

If you've liked the South Beach diet, I suggest that you give yourself the gift of this book as well.

If you haven't tried the South Beach diet yet, I suggest that you buy both The South Beach Diet book and this one. You'll do even better, I think, if you do.

Nice job, Dr. Agatston!

5.0 out of 5 stars Grateful user 13 July 2007

Format:Paperback
How anyone could do the South Beach diet without this book is a wonder to me. What Dr. Agatston has done is create a diet that is easy to follow by simple common sense: stick to "good" fats and "good" carbs and only err on the borders with moderation. But what is a solid good carb? The basic rule is slow burn, high fibre and low sugar. But what is borderline? At first it is hard to know. This book allows you to tell instantly and to find the little stinkers that seem to defy the rules e.g. pumpkin is bad and sweet potato is good; Pearl Barley is OK, white rice is not. Fats are easier (stick to olive oil and nut oil and you'll do well) but the book still helps.
Essential in the first weeks, always handy on the cookbook shelf thereafter.
