Welcome Mary. I am new too. My best friend and I are on Atkins for the fifth time around. She recently tried the South Beach diet, and wasn't too impressed. She said the book really dosen't give any concrete instructions like Atkins book does. Also, the difference is that SB lets you eat low glycemic fruit, and goes more for lean beef, chicken and fish. She has gotten better results from Atkins. Her cholesterol was higher on Atkins, but I don't know if that had anything to do with the diet.
