5.0 out of 5 stars Portable Guide to What to Choose and Avoid on South Beach, 24 Aug 2005

By	Professor Donald Mitchell "Jesus Makes Me a P... (Boston) - See all my reviews (TOP 10 REVIEWER)

This review is from: The South Beach Diet Good Fats/Good Carbs Guide (Revised): The Complete and Easy Reference for All Your Favorite Foods (The South Beach Diet) (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!

1.0 out of 5 stars very disappointing, 3 Feb 2004

By	Florry "Florry" (UK) - See all my reviews

Having enjoyed the first main book I thought this would be a useful supplement - however, it spends far too much of its slim pages telling you what you can't eat in an increasingly annoying fashion instead of telling you what you can incorporate into the diet.

Anyone with an ounce of sense would know that a doughnut was off limits - there is no need to then list 6 other kinds of doughnuts and confirm the blindingly obvious fact that you can't eat those either. It makes much of the GI index at the beginning and then doesn't even give us the ratings for the foods that are listed. This is very very poor indeed.

4.0 out of 5 stars A handy guide, 3 Feb 2004

By	John Book "mylesnagopaleen" (UK) - See all my reviews

If you've already read the original South Beach diet book, this is a useful guide to help you choose your good carbohydrates and fats, with pretty comprehensive listings of foods.
If you've yet to discover the good doctor's first book, this is a simple introduction.
