South Beach Diet knowledge base
How does the south beach diet work? I really like fruits and veggies. I'm not too big into meat or cheese which is why the atkins would not work for me (Plus I dont think it is very healthy). Before I go out and buy the book or whatever it is, how exactly does the South Beach Diet work?
How much exercise should I do during Phase I of the South Beach Diet? I am starting the South Beach Diet, and plan on exercising throughout to maximize my weight loss effort. However, I know that my body is going to feel very sluggish during the first 2 weeks as it is so adjusted to having an abundance of carbs. How critical is it to exercise during those first two weeks?
Do you have to follow the menu plans for the South Beach Diet? I just recently started the South Beach Diet and I have a question. Do you have to follow the menus strictly? Because it'll tell you to eat certain allowable foods for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. But i don't. I mean i stick with the plans meaning the requiered foods, but if im not hungry i dont eat. I may not eat a snack or a lunch. And i'd maybe eat a lunch for some of the dinner plans. For instance, a days menu could say that you should eat eggs, tomato juice, and canadian bacon for breakfast, turkey roll ups with cilanto dressing for snack, tuna salad for lunch,mozzarella stick for snack, and some eggplant meal for dinner. But I ate the mozarella stick for breakfast (cuz i wasnt hungry), the turky slices, but ate them with low fat chesse and jello (allowed foods) and i prolly will have a lunch meal for dinner since eggplant isnt appealing. Is this ruining the chemistry of the diet or is it okay?
How much weight did you lose in the first 2 weeks of the South Beach Diet? Hi! This question id for people who went on the South Beach Diet. I know that Phase 1 is the strictest diet, and you're supposed to lose between 8-13 pounds. How much weight did you lose, and how much did you weigh originally? Thanks but please dont promote anything I just want to know how much people have lost in the first 2 weeks.
How well does the South Beach diet work? Thinking about going on the South Beach diet and was wondering how well it worked. I really dont want to go on weight watchers and worry about adding up points and stuff since I dont have that much time,even though its summer. Thanx Oh, and soccers starting up in a week or so, so I will be doing a lot of running and exercises {well, up into october when it ends}.

Can I eat raw coconuts on phase one of the south beach diet? I am on the first phase of the south beach diet and I was wondering if it is okay to eat coconuts. I don't eat it refined. Basically I buy a ripe coconut from the store, crack it open and then eat the white part (the flesh) on the inside. I don't add any sugar or flavoring. Is this allowed on the south beach diet? I think the skin that has to be eaten with the meat is rich in fiber but I am not sure about the carbs and sugars in a coconut. Thanks.
Can you do the South Beach Diet useing just the prepared foods? I really don't have that much time in my day, especially mornings, I want to start the South Beach Diet, but the book I have was published before all of the prepared meals came out. My questions is, can I be successful in the Phase 1 part of the diet, with the prepared meals? Thanks!
Does anyone have the grocery list for the South Beach Diet book? I just bought the South Beach diet softcover book that says Lose Belly Fat First in a yellow circle on the top right corner of the cover. In the back of the book it gives you a list and recipes of foods for the first 2 weeks of each phase, but it doesn't give you a grocery list. It is taking me forever to try to figure it out. Is there anyone that has the same book and has already figured out the grocery list, that wouldn't mind giving it to me? That would be really helpful, thanks!
Can someone give me details for the South Beach Diet? Since i've been advised not to go with the Atkins diet, can someone please give me details of the South Beach diet? I've never heard of it before! Can you tell me what i can eat and how quickly I can see the effects?
Can I mix the meals on the South Beach diet? I wanted to try the south beach diet. I am reading the book and looking at the meals in phase 1. I was wondering If I didn't like one dinner plan, If I could use a different dinner plan from another day? Like, the 4th day for dinner is salmon. If I dont like salmon, can I use the chicken recipe for day 5 instead? If I like one breakfast, can I eat that one everyday or do i have to follow the day by day recipes, or are they all the same in the end? I hope I made sense! =) Thanks.
which South Beach Diet book do I need to get started? I want to start the South Beach Diet, and I noticed there were several books. This is my first time trying the diet, and I was wondering which book gives me all the information on Phases 1,2,3 and tells me what to eat and things like that? And about how much does it cost?
I am a self professed wino! Do you really have to stop for the South Beach diet to work? I've never dieted.. I am 23 years old and very tall and muscular so Ive never really needed to. Recently due to health issues, Ive put on extra weight and want to lose it healthily (hence, the South Beach Diet). My mother, who is a diet junkie, to my dismay, swears that you can 'cheat' with a few glasses of wine in the evening. Does anyone out there have any experience with this before I do something Ill regret?
What do one do when fallen off the wagon on the South Beach Diet? I am trying out the South Beach Diet and it has been a challenge since I am a total bread lover. What should I do if I finally caved in during Phase 1 and consumed bread? Do I recover myself the next day and continue on, or do I have to reset and start the two weeks all over again? I am beginning to think the South Beach Diet is not for me, because I have not lost any weight in the 1st week that I was on Phase 1 (before finally having bread)
Have any of you experienced weight gain on the South Beach diet? A lady I work with has been following the South Beach diet plan to the letter for almost 3 weeks now. During phase 1 she lost just under 15 pounds. On the 1rst of this month she progressed to phase 2. She is still following it to the letter and is not eating bread everyday, only 1 slice every other day. She is eating low/no fat foods. She is also exercising everyday. She is concerned because since she switched phases she has gained 2 pounds. How worried should she be?
South Beach Diet phase 1 dressing recipe? Does anyone have an acceptable recipe for the South Beach Diet phase 1 salad dressing? I'm tired of the olive oil only. Thanks! It's going well. Thanks for asking:-) The only thing I've done differently is having a 4 oz. glass of wine in the evenings (love my wine)! It might defeat the purpose, but I've dropped a pound and a half in two days!

Is oatmeal ok in the first phase of the South Beach diet? I didn't know if it was or not. I love oatmeal, and it's generally seen as a good food. If anyone knows anything, please let me know. Also, if there is a list of things that are and are not allowed during the first phase (or any other phase for that matter) of the South Beach diet, it would be most appreciated if you could give me a link or something. Thanks!!

South Beach Diet breakfast in a dorm room? I am very familiar with the South Beach Diet, but it's easier when you can actually cook your meals. I'm in a dorm room now, and was wondering if anyone could suggest SBD-friendly breakfast ideas. All I have to work with is a fridge and a microwave. Oh, Phase 1 ideas would be great. =) thanks!
Why is my stomach messed up after a month on the south beach diet? I have been on the south beach diet for about a month and my stomach is all sorts of messed up. I am in phase 2 and have re-introduced good carbs back into my diet. My stomach was all sorts of messed up after abotu a week on the diet and has only gotten worse. I have had diarreah and a sorts of fun stuff like that. Should I continue on the diet, or just start eating differnetly and still working out. I need to lose weight somehow and be healthy about it. Help!!!
Does the South Beach Diet really work? I've been researching a lot of different diet plans, and the South Beach Diet seems to be the easiest to follow. I was just curious if anybody has been successful with the diet plan, and what type of excercise you did along with the diet. Thank you ahead of time to all of those who give their input!
Is it safe to switch from the Atkins' diet to the South Beach diet all at once, or would it ruin our progress? My wife and I have been doing Atkins for a little over a month, and to be honest, we are bored. We're tired of not being able to have ANY kind of bread, and constantly worrying about one or two extra carbs. We've looked at the South Beach diet, and just like Atkins it is a carb-restrictive diet. There are a few differences, and that is where we are we are curious about switching. Would switching from Atkins to South Beach all at once make us gain weight while we waited for the effects of South Beach to kick in? If you have never been on either diet, or you aren't educated about low-card dieting, please don't criticize our diet choices. All we want to know if if SWITCHING from Atkins to South Beach is safe and isn't going to make us gain all our weight back. Also, if anyone here has experience doing South Beach, we'd love to hear about your results! (Especially if you have done Atkins as well!)
Need help with boxed lunch ideas on the South Beach Diet? We're on the South Beach Diet and loving it! However, my hubby has to take a lunch every day and I'm finding it very difficult to come up with something other than salad and lettuce wraps. Anybody have any ideas or recipes that would keep him satisfied? His work is very physical at times, so he needs the fuel at lunch time! Although we've done the 2 weeks for the phase 1- he still needs to lose weight - and quickly due to health reasons, so we're trying to stay as close to the phase 1 foods as we can.
How long is each South Beach Diet step? Am thinking about doing the S.B.D. but do not know how long each phase takes until you go to another step. Do you know the time peroids per stage with the South Beach Diet?
Can you eat out while on the South Beach Diet? I'm thinking of starting the South Beach Diet. Thing is, I'm rarely home, so I have to eat out a lot, especially when I have events that I have to attend like office dinners and so on (this is actually the reason I failed my diet before, because I couldn't follow a strict diet when I have to attend work-related events). Would the South Beach Diet allow me to eat out/give me some freedom on what to eat?
how much does the south beach diet cost? I need to find out exactly how much it costs to join the south beach website. I'm doing a report for school on healthy dieting, and about other "diets" like Jenny Craig, Atkins, South Beach, etc. South Beach isn't telling me how much it costs monthly, so I was hoping someone could tell me. Thank you!
South Beach Diet? Iv try'ed the atkins diet and it didn't work very well so i was wondering if the south beach diet would be good. i 260 pounds 6'1 and i would like to know if the south beach diet would be a good diet to go on.
South Beach diet...How does it work ? I just signed up for the south Beach diet and I have no idea how it works....I am a busy student and I thought the south beach diet you buy there products and you have easy meals...My question is do you have to buy grocery and prepare them from scratch or can you go off a diet thats strictly easy meals like microwave meals,bars,and snacks from the south beach brand ?
South Beach Diet? Who created the South Beach Diet or promotes the diet? How does the diet work? Does the diet follow the food guide pyramid serving recommendations? How long should you stay on the diet? Are there any special foods, pills, or equipment needed for the diet? Is excercise required or recommended while on the diet? How much weight can you lose using the diet? Would you recommend the diet? Do you feel it is safe? Why/why not?
does the south beach diet work? Ok so i want to lose like 6-11lbs for summer. And i was thinking of going on a diet i know some people who have gone on the south beach diet and then quit. Does the south beach diet really work? and what are the guidelines for south beach diet? r u still allowed to eat carbs?? i hope so because if you can't then i can't go on it. i love bread!

South Beach? OK, I have been on here a few times asking about ways to lose weight. Some of you mentioned talking to my doctor. Well, I took your advice and I did :) She reccomends the South Beach diet. She told me not only will the weight "melt" off, but its being done the healthy way. Well, I looked it up, it looks easy. How can something this easy work so well? In the 1st 2 weeks it says I can lose anywhere from 8-13 pounds! Can you imagine that? And giving up the carbs for the 1st 2 weeks wont be hard because years ago I did Atkins and succeeded ( but I gained a lot back after death in the family and stress, and now I found out I have PCOS which causes obesity).. So, just wanted to know if anyone has tried it and succeeded or failed and if there is any adive, recipes, or tips I need to know to start this and FINISH this. I am going to lose weight, I am not giving up on myself!

I am getting married in June and want to lose the weight i gained as I bought my dress a lot lighter!

If there is such a list out there please let me know. Thanks!
South Beach Diet-Weight not changing? Help? I started the South Beach Diet almost one month ago. After doing the 2 week induction...My daily food intake now consists of either a South Beach Meal Replacement Bar for Breakfast or some form of eggs depending on how much time I have. For lunch I have either a grilled chicken salad or a South Beach pizza with a very small salad. Same for dinner. I also snack on sf jello w/ sf cool whip, broccoli with cheese, or turkey slices. I also work out moderately at least 3 or 4 times a week. I have noticed being a bit more firm and toned, but I have not lost one single pound. Please help?! I realize that scales are not the only judge but it would be nice to see SOME weight loss for all my effort.
South Beach Diet vs Atkins - which is best for diabetic person? I have been doing Atkins for years and eating low carb. I now find it hard to stick to it. I realize "now" that I am eating tons of fat, butter, sour cream and heavy whipping cream for my coffee. I have lost thirty pounds, but maybe not due to Atkins, but because I am taking a pill for diabetes that helped me lose weight. I was reading about the South Beach Diet and it is similar to Arkins only we cannot eat all the fat. This is a harder diet to do because I would have to make certain meals where with Atkins it was just meat, fish, eggs, cheese and broccoli and asparagus .. and salad. I do not want to make a lot of recipes with the South Beach Diet - it just seems to hard to do. I do not thoroughly understand why I can eat a lot of whole grains on a diet "when" they contain carbs. If I eat normal carbs I gain weight immediately. Whole grains slow down the GL, but I still don't get it. I need to start a diet today and not sure which is best. Need to lose 40 pounds.
South Beach Diet? Snacks? Weight Loss? Help!!!? South Beach Diet? Snacks? Weight Loss? Help!!!? South Beach Diet? Snacks? Weight Loss? I am on Day 3 of Phase 1. I need some nighttime snack ideas.

South Beach diet?.......Please help!? Hi, I love the south beach diet, I lost so much weight! The problem is the diet states you could have "whole grain" or "whole wheat" bread, but all the brands in the supermarket have are made with sugar. Can anyone recomend a brand of bread? Also, what about a brand of crakers and ceral? Please don't say south beach products, they are so expensive
South Beach Diet/Slim fast? Would drinking a Slim Fast in the morning for breakfast defeat the purpose of doing the South Beach Diet? I was planning to start SBD tomorrow with a Slim Fast for breakfast. Also does anyone have any tips about the South Beach Diet? Recipes and such. I haven't been able to get the book yet, but I've read up online about a few things but I'd like to be a little bit more informed if possible. Thanks!!
south beach diet food!? ok im not in the south beach diet, but do u think if i buy those frozen premaind south beach diet foods in the super marcket it will help me lose weight..i am going to the gym and watching my food.
anyone tried South Beach Diet? did it work? I am thinking of testing out the south beach diet, have never been on any diet with a name or any "marketed" diet before. This diet is talking about eating what sounds like WAY more food than I eat now because usually I only eat dinner and maybe a small snack, sometimes a bowl of cereal right now. I tend to eat when Im not even hungry. Do you do this on south beach diet? Do you eat even if you aren't hungry?
South Beach Diet? I have been struggling to stay at a normal weight since I was about 12 years old. I tried the Brown Rice Diet a while ago, which worked wonders.... that is, until I came off of it and ballooned almost immediately. I hear that this South Beach Diet is more a lifestyle that you have to program yourself into, instead of a temporary thing that you come off of. Has anyone tried this before? Does it come out with good results? Advice? Info? Anything?
south beach DIET and CIGARETTE SMOKINNGGG? i just bought the book and when i wake up im cookin the breakfast it told me too. i eliminated pop from my diet over a month ago, alcohol about 2 weeks ago, and fast food about a week ago. i have a good prep i suppose from being a binge drinker/eater...and now im ready for the south beach!! heck yea!! but....can i quit smokin at the same time? would that be too much to try to diet, quit drinking and smoking all in a month or so's time?? I mean i have a drinking problem and an eating problem i know this thanks but i think my willpower will kill it. i really dont need/want to loose a bunch of weight but i wanna get healthy really bad like detox my body but is it completely pointless if im smoking?? and if i wanted to smoke what would be the way to go?? would the sugar's from my a quit smokin gum just kill my efforts and slow my progress?? what about a patch? wtf! i need to be healthy! and i can't detox while inhaling a pack of newports everyday! that's absurd! help me rhonda at the end i meant to say if i wanted to quit smoking how would i go about that
South beach diet and walking? I know all diets require exercise. I'm starting the south beach diet and I might not have enough time to exercise so would walking 4 miles to my house be good enough or do I need to run?
South Beach Diet? I've been on the Atkins diet for 2 months now. I've been in a stall for 7 weeks. I'm think about taking a break for 2 weeks then starting the South Beach Diet. I can handle the low carb thing. I just can't handle not seeing results. Will the South Beach Diet work? Thanks!
South Beach diet? So I found a website at http://www.southbeach-diet-plan.com/shoppinglist_p1.htm That shows the food lists and how to use the south beach diet. I am getting married in June and would love to not necessarily lose alot of weight maybe ten pounds and tone up. All brides know how that feeling goes right? Well do any of you have any experience with the south beach diet? If so did it work or not? And also The biggest thing I want to tone is my love handles! Any advice how to do that and can I get it done before my wedding? I am not very motivated at actually getting up to work out! So when I do go I want to focus on that the most. Any tips? Thanks guys!!!
Does the South Beach Diet book, have example meals that we can eat ? In the book, does the South beach Diet, explain examples of meals we can eat. I searched for the South beach Diet books, and saw one book explaining about the diet, and another giving meals that you can make for the diet, and I am trying to figure out if the regular book at least has some examples of the meals that I an eat throughout the day? Thanks. Sorry, I barely noticed I asked this in the wrong section. Thanks.

South Beach Diet Question - So hungry!? Hello I started the South Beach Diet three days ago and I have noticed that my appetite has increased. I was wondering if I should be worried or how I can curb my cravings for food. Before dieting, I would eat lunch and dinner - no breakfast and hardly any snacks. Now I eat breakfast, lunch and dinner and I cannot keep my hands off of the turkey wraps, mozerella sticks and celery sticks! I weighed myself and I have gained a pound so I really don't know what to think right now. Since starting the diet, I have been riding my bike for about 20 minutes each day as exercise. Any advice?
South Beach Diet - Vegetarian Chinese recipies? I really like Chinese food but im a vegetarian and on the south beach diet (phase one- no fruit or grains). Anyone know how to make really good food like the kind in the Chinese resturants (egg drop soup, egg foo young ect)?
opinion between South beach diet and Weight Watchers? I've spent my life dieting, going up aand down, and it's getting crazy and I know it's not good for me. I lost a lot of weight on Atkins, but now feel it is not a healthy diet and could have lost faster on one of the above. I've found most people have tried both of these diets, as have I, but I really would like some feed back on how people did on each diet, which they would recommed, and anything else they have to say. I have tried both and years ago did great on WW,but did South Beach, reached my goal but had loads of trouble keeping it,don't like there is no follow up. PLEASE NO NASTY COMMENTS ABOUT FAT PEOPLE AND NO UGLY QUESTIONS THAT WILL UPSET PEOPLE. Not everyone was born with a beautiful body. Everyone has great thoughts, but I forgot to mention one thing that may effect which diet, I'm disabled and can't do a lot of excercisek including even walking sometimes

South Beach Diet HELP ME?? I'm on day 10 of the South Beach Diet on Phase 1. When I began this diet I weighed 127 lbs. And I run 3 miles a day and follow everything the diet says. I weighed myself this morining and I weighed 127. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've noticed my stomach is tighter when I wake up and my arms are more slender, but why are the numbers on the scale not changing.... I don't know if I should stay on Phase one for longer or go to Phase two as directed and see what happends. Why am I not losing weight?
South Beach Diet- question about carb guidelines? I know the book doesn't specifically state how many carbs one should have in phases 1 and 2. It does encourage good carbs, which is great. However, in eating all those "south beach diet" packaged stuff, I find that they have a surprisingly high number of carbs. Is there like a guideline one should follow, like no more than 20 grams per day? Has anyone done South Beach, and what were your results? What worked for you. Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!!! :) :)

South Beach Diet... not overweight? I am 5'10" and about 165ish pounds (I try not to weigh myself anymore)...I used to be 146 half a year ago but rapidly gained weight for some reason because I craved everything. Anyway, I got my eating MOSTLY under control to where I am not gaining anymore...but I am finding it hard to lose weight. Has anyone not overweight done the South Beach Diet with success? I want to appear "toned"...lowering my body fat. I am currently about 23%. I don't really know how low your body fat has to be for muscle to start showing through. When I was 19% it didn't show. Anyway, did it work for you? (BTW, I do pilates, exercise, and lift weights as well...but these are not working. need to change my diet).

Is the South Beach Diet right for me? I would like very much so to lose some of this weight. my BMI is bad, I'm considered Insulin Resistant and on birth control. I'm not in the mood to have a short, overweight life right now and I need to fix it. I've been overweight nearly all my life. I'm thinking my problem is that I over eat, eat when I'm not hungry, and when I am I have no sense of portions. My doctor reccomened The South Beach Diet and it looks more appealing than the Atkins diet, and a little more loose (Phase I of Atkins allowed very little to no milk/yogurt, while the Phase one of SBD allowed two servings of milk/yogurt low-fat or fat-free.). I struggled with Atkins a little because I was sneaking food (I have no self control, I know :/) but maybe SBD will appease that or something. Would 3-4lbs a week be an okay amount per week? I need to lose half of how much I weigh now, but not through hardcore dieting and exercise. Is there anything you can reccomend to me concerning anything I've written? Thanks!

I'm starting the South Beach Diet tommorow and? I got the Meal Replacement bars for the diet, and 2 frozen meals for dinner. They're South Beach Stuff. Is this is a good diet? I eat one Meal Replacement bar for breakfast with a bottle of water. I eat one for lunch, with a bottle of water. And then I microwave my South Beach meal in the microwave for dinner and I eat it before 8 o clock. I also exercise for over an hour. I read about it but,it says when you get the Phase 3 or your desired weight, you have to stick with the diet forever to keep your weight. Thing is, this food is really expensive and my mom will not buy it forever. Neither will I. I'm 13 years old. Standing at 5'1. I weigh 127 pounds. I'm planning to lose 27 pounds or more. I'm really confused on sticking with it for life..

Can you intermingle South Beach Diet and Atkins? Can you go between the two diets and still lose weight? For example: You have a South Beach Diet approved meal for dinner one night and the next night you have an Atkins approved meal for dinner. I've been doing this lately, but I am afraid I've been ruining both diets by doing so.
