Get the South Beach Supercharged. I have both books and I use them both. Supercharged has the latest food lists, exercise info and more recipes. Check out the South Beach recipe section. I have made some fantastic dishes. I also love the support I get from this site.

so the south beach super charge has the same material as the original one? with added exercise and food list info?

There is some additional info on nutrition along with more motivational stories. The new food lists are posted here along with great recipes. You can use the older book but I liked the supercharged book better.

The supercharged book has the latest food lists (which can be found here also). It has a better explanation IMO of the preferred gradual introduction of Ph2 foods. And there is an exercise component included. I think there are a few new recipes, but also some repeats (it's been a while since I looked at it). If you already had the older book, and have some experience with the plan, I wouldn't run out and buy the new book (although I did). But if you are going to buy a new book anyway, you may as well get the new one, though you could manage just fine with the old one and the updated food lists here.

I liked quite a few of the recipes in it, but I checked it out of the library and photocopied them.
