how does South B differ from Suzanne Somers
plan? Also is Sugar Busters close to the maintenance of South Beach.
I lost weight on Suzanne Somers plan and have maintained what I lost by following The Schwarzbein Principle) basically. Over the summer I had some cheats (used fructose and Splenda to sweeten but had so much extra activity it did not bother my loss. But I have gained a cpl. of extra lbs. after the holiday season (the real thing--sugar! :nono: and less activity due to the colder weather and not being able to walk as much (excuses,excuses) anyway -- I have been seeing a lot of good things about the South Beach diet so I came here to get some 'real people' opinions. I plan to buy the book when I can get to my favorite half price book store. It must be popular-- I put it on hold at the public library and am #119 (I guess others are curious too!) I think I will be returning to this board to read of your experiences. I feel ready to start getting serious again to see if I can get into a BMI that is in the normal range by losing the last 10 lbs I have come so close to but not attained for several years. What is the South Beach authors ideas on artificial sweetners? |
He's for 'em. Including Splenda and Aspartame.
You can find a Prevention magazine guide to the Weight loss in supermarkets right now that is the SBD in a nutshell, so far in reading the book I haven't found any extra info. For $4 maybe a good place to get the basics until it comes in from the library. That's exactly what I did. |
Well I did get more information at www.prevention.com too including a transcript of a chat with Dr. A, so some of the book info I have already read probably came from there. Let me know if you go looking for it and have trouble finding it.

Thanks! The link worked beautifully, I printed the chat and will read it tonight when I return frome work.
This plan looks like the kind of happy medium I have been looking for at this time in my life. Has anyone started with phase 2 and found success ? |
I'm with you on the "happy medium" thing. The beans keep me going on Phase 1. Well not that I"ve done a good job but because of the beans and milk I can.
