Lost 46 pounds in a year using this

Customer Rating:
My stepdaughter Liana used SBD to lose 46 lbs after having her son, Lewis. She is now a size 18 and has about 40-50 pounds more to go.

She has two cautions though.

1. The diet gave her measles (yes I don't see how but that's what her natureopath tells her, of course Dr. Denjela drinks his own urine so other than Liana and her partner Franklin no body in our family puts much creedance in what he says.

2. the Turkey Chili recipe has a significant typo. I's supposed to be one teaspoon of Tabasco sauce NOT one cup!!

South Beach Diet Cookbook

Customer Rating:
Very useful tool when going on this diet. Helps w/ having variety to eat while in phase 1, 2 and 3. Very timely delivery.

Now that's what I like - diet recipes that are also tasty!

Customer Rating:
The recipe book and its companion paperback guide make it easy to sort out where all the "sugar" and "fats" are hidden in the prepared foods at the grocery store so you can make healthy decisions according to your own needs. The recipes are good - some a bit too fancy for our tastes - but all can me modified with the foods and spices on the lists that you like. We've also found several new favorites!

Good, Healthy Recipes

Customer Rating:
This recipe book has some good recipes. I especially like the sausage and cheese breakfast cups. Some of the other recipes are rather complicated, with ingredients that may be hard to find. I have had better luck with "South Beach", than anything else.

I went on the South Beach Diet in November 2005. In one year I went from weighing 280 lbs to weighing 215! My cholesterol went from 221 to 141,and my blood pressure went from 150/100 to 117/77 (with NO drugs). Also I lost 6 inches around my waist. It went from 42 inches to 36.As of May 2008, I currently weigh 212 (at 5' 11') and am trying to work my way to 195 now.I own all of the books and am one of the biggest advocates of the diet. I would recommend this book to anyone!
