south beach diet
hi all interested to hear if anyone has tried this diet, would you recommend it? How much weight did you loose in what amount of time and did you also exercise? Had my lo 3 months ago and havent managed to even loose a lb as so busy with baby, always just stick something quickly in the oven like a pizza

Re: south beach diet
I did this "fad" for about 3 days before I became really sick.
There is no fruit allowed week 1 so after about 2/3 days I had coldsores, sore throat, bad skin etc etc... It is terrible. I would not recommend it at all Weight Watchers is the best imo. 2 and a half months so say 10/11 weeks you could easily lose 14+ pounds on weight watchers if you do it correctly and at least you know your body is still healthy Re: south beach diet
thanks for that nostress, i hear alot of good things about weight watchers but i just dont think its for me with counting points etc...can i ask you where did u get the book, can you download it online or buy it in easons?
Re: south beach diet
lemon, i've just started doing a low carb diet...trust me it wasnt easy at start as i dont feel like i'm having a meal unless there is a side dish of enormous carbs - only been at it over a week and lost 2 and half pounds first week. I dont have that much to lose looking to drop about 10lbs at most and any other diet i do its about a pound a week loss max. First few days were tough but i feel great now and you can eat all the foods that are banned on other diets - i'm still getting my head around this. For dinner at weekend i had steak with pepper sauce and vege on sat, sunday i had chicken breast stuffed with goats cheese and sundried tomatoes and cabbage and bacon. I'm not as hungry as i am on other diets.
I go to gym and do two classes on a monday night (body combat and a yoga/pilates class) and i try to get to one on a thurs but i bought the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred for days i'm at the gym, its only a 20 min work out so easy to fit in but it is intense! [url=http://www.TickerFactory.com/]

Thks mclisa u have great motivation i dont seem to be able to motivate myself!i hav tried no carb diet befire and i know it works i would loose 2lb a week but alwats gave up after 3 weeks or so!before it was enough cos i didnt need to loose alot but now its different with an eextra 20lbs in me..hate my jelly belly especially cos i had a c section and it seems to just hang its horrible! rant over..
Re: south beach diet
Which book? If you are worried about WW because of the counting it really is so simple. Once you eat chicken twice you know how much it is, veg is free, potatoes are the same as the chicken - calculate it once and job done. My first week doing this I lost 3.5 pounds, no low carb, no exercise, just portion size control. It really is not diet and if you stick to it you will easily lose more than 1lb a week Re: south beach diet
The soutg beach diet book;or wer did u get info about the first phase as in what exactly ur allowed to eat
Re: south beach diet
I do a programme called the primal blueprint www.marksdailyapple.com If you regsiter with the website you get all the information you need for free. Or you can buy the book if you wish. Its a low carb plan but does not restrict fruit and veg so is very healthy. Have a look at it, it takes getting used to but I actually hate bread and pasta now, something I never thought I'd say!
I cannot recommend this diet enough - all the studies back it up. It really works for health and to make you slim and toned too! Shameless self promotion of my blog http://nuttygalwantstocomehome.blogspot.com/
Re: south beach diet
Thks for that brideofrecession ill have a look now.when did you start and how much have you lost so far?was debating weather to order the south beach book so finally ordered it online for 10e.hopefully it will be worth a read but still not sure if i can be on a diet without fruit..
Re: south beach diet
How much did u loose BOR? I've been doing SW but hit a plateau. Did low carb before I got married & didn't find it hard at all. Just cut out bread, rice, pasta & potatoes & lost a load of weight quite quickly. I must check out that website. Re: south beach diet
hi mrs woggle, how do you find SW? when you did the low carb diet how much did you loose in how many weeks/months?
Re: south beach diet
Well, for me it was more about health than losing weight but I did lose over a stone. I'm still losing weight, more slowly now then at the beginning and sometimes I do slack off and put on a few pounds but the longer I am doing it now, the more dedicated and faithful I am to the plan. I am 5' 7" and just under ten stones but wouldn't mind losing a bit more weight and toning up too. That's why I am starting kettlebell classes. Being primal is not just about what you eat and what exercise you do, it's kind of a whole lifestyle change, a different more positive outlook and attitude about everything. I've been doing the primal plan for about a year and a half now. But like I said there were times when I fell off the wagon; my honeymoon, Christmas that kind of thing but I just went straight back onto it and lost the weight I gained pretty much immediately. If you really care about your health then it is the best diet around. Shameless self promotion of my blog http://nuttygalwantstocomehome.blogspot.com/

A world without bread *Munch scream*
I've been having a serious stab at surrending the aul bread for the last few weeks. How the f*ck does anyone successfully manage it? Where do you put your peanut butter and your crisps? Help. Formerly known as Prince
