The South Beach Diet™ Online - Information and Facts - The South Beach Diet

What it is
The South Beach Diet™ was developed by renowned cardiologist, Dr. Arthur Agatston. Rather than focusing on low-fat or low-carb foods, Dr. Agatston recommends a balanced diet that incorporates good fats and good carbs, and lots of delicious food! This “smart carb” diet consists of Three Phases:

Phase 1: Start Losing Weight. This is a two-week period of eating proteins – like meat, chicken, and fish – and plenty of vegetables, eggs, cheese, and nuts. You’ll cut out bread, pasta, and fruit – to help you banish cravings for unhealthy carbs. But don’t worry – you’ll add them back in!
Phase 2: Reintroduce Carbs. Add your favorite whole wheat bread, pasta, and fruits back into your diet. You’ll stay in Phase 2 until you’ve reached all your weight-loss goals.
Phase 3: Your Diet For Life. Nothing’s off limits in this phase. You’ll continue to follow the basic principles to maintain your weight and feel healthy.

What Will I be Able to Eat?
The best part of the South Beach Diet™ is the food! Sit down to five-star dishes like seared flank steak, rosemary grilled chicken, and spicy seared tuna – and lose weight at the same time!

Say goodbye to diet food. On the South Beach Diet™ you'll look like you diet, but eat like you don't! You'll sit down to dishes like Spicy Seared Tuna, Chicken Ceasar Salad, and Roasted Portobello "Pizza." Enjoy grilled fish and steak, roasted chicken and vegetables, and fresh, Miami-style salads.

Having doubts? Don't. The diet even includes dessert, snacks, and fast food options.

This is a diet anyone can love - whether you're into fast food, home-cooking, or eating at the trendiest new restaurants.

How does The South Beach diet Work?
During the first two weeks of the South Beach Diet™, you'll learn how to eat in a new way. Whether you're shedding a few vanity pounds or working on a major weight-loss goal, this is the realistic and delicious way to start losing your extra pounds.

What you'll eat: You'll eat normal-size helpings of meat and seafood (like chicken, beef, fish, and shrimp). You'll have plenty of vegetables, eggs, cheese, and nuts. You'll have salads with real olive oil in the dressing. You'll have three balanced meals a day. You'll eat great foods and satisfy your hunger.

The South Beach Diet™ will also help you banish cravings and avoid the sensation that you need more food. You'll be urged to have snacks twice a day. You can have dessert after dinner. You can drink diet soda. You can even eat out!

What you won't eat: For the first 14 days you won't have any bread, rice, potatoes, pasta, or baked goods. No fruit, even. Before you panic: You'll begin adding those things back into your diet again in two weeks. But for right now, they're off-limits. You also won't eat candy, cake, cookies, ice cream, or sugar for two weeks. Also no beer or alcohol. After this phase, though, you'll be free to drink wine again and eat a wider variety of desserts.

It may sound tough, but you're going to be shocked at how painlessly two weeks will pass without these foods. The first day or two may be challenging; but after that, it will seem like the only way to eat. The South Beach Diet™ may be new to you, but it has existed for several years, and has helped literally thousands of people start losing weight and eating right.

Why should I do a Diet Online?
By dieting online you can start shedding your extra pounds, no matter what your weight-loss goal is. And you'll be able to get specific information and meet other dieters with similar goals.
