There's only one South Beach Diet book.

Here's a post on SB Diet that I posted a while ago:

The only piece of advice that I have is that you stick to it strictly for Phase I...otherwise, the diet will not work. You can substitute (turkey for chicken) but you can't add (starchy veggies or fruits).

My experience is it tells you things you should eat, things you can't eat. Its not like a strict breakdown of exactly what to have at what times

Yes you can...use your own judgment....if I didnt like something I would skip altogether.
