Okay, having read the basic bible to the South Beach Diet (ISBN: 1579546463), which I would recommend to you if you are interested in this cookbook, I wanted to try some of the meals Agatston referred to in his book.
The author divides the cookbook into the following sections: breakfast, snacks, s

I really like South Beach by design. I have lost 40 pounds and love the fact it is a "healthy" low-carb alternative. It was great to see them (though not a suprise considering book sales) to come out with the cookbook. Overall the recipes I have made were good BUT
1) They use a lot of ingredients

I just completed day 2 of Phase 1 - it has been more difficult in some ways than expected and easier in others. The difficulties are somewhat related to my not being able to clear out my house of foods that might tempt me. My 2 year old daughter who is a picky eater will only eat things such as Maca
Body for Life: 12 Weeks to Mental and Physical Strength
Bill Phillips had been publishing bodybuilding magazines and marketing nutritional supplements for years when he had a weird revelation at a trade show: many of the most loyal and enthusiastic readers he had were totally out of shape. From that uncomfortable realization came his popular Physique Transformation Contest (top prize that first year: Phillipss own Lamborghini), now world famous, and this book.
The three-times-a-week weightlifting program in Body for Life is deceptively simple. If youve spent any time in the gym, youve already done all the exercises. But Phillips includes a couple of high-intensity sets at the end of each exercise that should compound the training effect on each muscle group. Same goes for the cardiovascular exercise he recommends: just 20 minutes, thr..

I have read many other books on dieting and even tried several of them including the most recent "fad", Dr. Atkins low carb diet. I am here to say that, yes, the Atkins diet worked and I lost 35 lbs. Only to see it come back and then some. A total of 45 lbs in 1 1/2 years. You will loose weight that..

I, too, bought the first book and loved it. When number II came out, I bought three copies for family and friends. While it is true that this book is more comprehensive, and I enjoyed that, it is also repetitive and less well organized. Additionally, it has left me with a disturbing question: What i..
The 7-Day Low-Carb Rescue and Recovery Plan: For Every Low-Carb Dieter--On Any Program--Who Needs Real Help--Right Now
The 7-Day Low-Carb Rescue and Recovery Plan The word "miracle" isnt in the title, but perhaps it should be. In The 7-Day Low-Carb Rescue and Recovery Plan, The Drs. Heller (The Carbohydrate Addicts Diet) have designed a tremendously simple week-long "jump start" for anyone who wants to give low-carb living a shot--or even a second try. With their emphasis on lean proteins and plenty of fiber, rather than plain "slabs of meat" at every meal, youll actually be adding food to your daily regimen for the first days of the program. As you continue the week, carb-heavy foods will be moved to the end of meals; partially removed; and removed entirely. A generous handful of recipes are included, all of which include plenty of spices and flavor, from the mushroom garlic dip to the sesam..

In this book the Heller doctors present an alternative approach to the typical low carb diet. Drs Heller suggest you start slow, and work up to a low carb diet over a 7 day period. Using this approach, the dieter has an easier time of adjusting to a carb free diet, without the sudden shock of going ..
