South beach diet

Has anyone tried this? If so how did it work for you??

Re: South beach diet

I felt like crap after a few days and stopped it. But I know some people who have done it and had it work well . . .but they gained the weight back super quick once they stopped

Re: South beach diet

I tried it years ago... .I thought some of the principles of the diet were good- it teaches you a lot about sugars, carbs/ different kinds, etc. The first few weeks are just like Atkins (no carbs at all) then you slowly add back in whole grain, fruit, etc. If you follow it- it can work. This combined with exercise is a pretty good diet plan I think...

Re: South beach diet

I did it for my sisters wedding--and people def. noticed a difference. I am thinking of starting it again, but it is not that healthy----you are supposed to have carbs, cause lack of it eats away at muscle--or at least that is what my nutritionist said.

Re: South beach diet

I did it, because i had a wedding and i wanted to drop 10lbs. I think it is okay for a quick fix, but not long term. As soon as you look at a bagel the weight comes right back.
