South Beach Diet

The best diet I've been on. I am serious – This is the best diet ever. It is'nt really a restrictive diet it is a life change diet. I lost 3kgs in the first 2 weeks not as much as the book suggests but I don't mind. The weight is still coming off. This is day 16 for me and I feel great! The variety of vegies I like a lot and the recipies taste great. I aim to lose 10kg all up before… Read more

summer. The tummy fat has reduced and I now fit back into my size 14 jeans again and even they are getting loser. Plenty to eat 5 times a day. Easy to follow. Good for my overall health. Heart, blood pressure, chlorestrol

Excellent – This is a great new way of eating to adopt. You feel full, you are eating 5, yes 5!!! Times a day. You feel more energetic...and I feel...better...I really believe that carbs bring me down...the bad ones...and I will NEVER have a piece of white bread, bun, again. That part of my life is over...The South Beach Diet changed me. I was not even… Read more

hungry for the past few weeks...I am on day 14 of the 'diet', wich I prefer to call a new way of eating. I have lost 9 pounds...feel better...and look better. The only thing I would say is bad is that I really got sick of eggs...but once I made myself a veggie omlet, I was fine. I miss pancakes:( It was hard to make them for my children yesterday, but I did not fall!!!!

Excellent – This 'diet' is a lifestyle change and I stuck to it for almost a year. I did lose alot of weight and the food was yummy and easy to prepare. even tho you aren't allowed fruit in the first 2 weeks, its OK because you know you can have it after that! This is truely a lifestyle change and even though I do not follow it to a "T" any longer I have… Read more

adopted many aspects of this diet into my eating etc. You do eat a lot, which is good because you are never hungry and it is easier to stick to then other diets I have tried. I would recommend this to anyone, its probably one of the best 'diets' out there...and I have tried ALOT!!!

No fruit in the first 2 weeks.

Excellent – I really liked this diet and I lost weight on it and kept it off. The foods were easy to prepare and very filling. There is very little carb, but lots of vegetables. I found that my insomnia and anxiety improved a lot on this diet. I was able to lose the weight without exercising so it is good for people who can't do a lot of physical activity.… Read more

This is my favourite way of eating and if I begin to gain weight I just get back on the plan and it comes off pretty quickly. I did not feel hungry on this diet. The weight came off quickly at first and then continued to come off each week at a slower rate. I found it easy to follow and liked the foods. No fruit in the first two weeks.

Excellent – gave me stacks of energy. ifeel satisfied a lot quicker, no more roller coaster hunger! i look great! the weight came off my hips and thighs, my skin glows. just love it! it works! very quickly. i only had about 6 ks to loose but i noticed a difference withing days! i feel great and have stacks of energy. love it! can be hard to plan meals as preperation can be a pain. but i fould simple solutions like cheese slices and salad packs!

Good – I lost 5 Kg on this diet in two weeks, without feeling tired or hungry. I'm on my third week of this diet and feel very energetic. It also makes me plan the foods I will eat and as I don't eat much takeaway now, I am also saving money. It's sensible and promotes long term healthy eating habits rather than eating disroders. Foods aren't totally… Read more

banned, only certain foods like pasta are restricted in the first two weeks.

It works - I lost 5 Kg in two weeks! I can't think of anything bad about this diet.

OK – I didn't find there was much incentive to eat well except for my own health but sometimes you need a bit more of a kick and this is just a eating a healthy low carb diet which is not so intense as the Atkins diet. Is teaching people to eat healthy. You need discipline to eat well and monitor eating well. There is not much support.
