I wrote earlier asking about a good diet to jumpstart my weight lose and to be able to get at least 10 lbs off in 10 weeks. Please give me your opinion on the South Beach diet?
Thanks

If you don't mind me asking, about how much do you weigh, and how much do you have to lose? That will really change the diet that will be best for you, and how quickly you might be able to lose weight.

I lost 11# in 3 weeks on South Beach, then another 8# in another 9-10 weeks. It's a very healthy diet, but to understand it you need to read the book. I do have to cook and prepare more food from scratch, but the SB forum here is very supportive and has lots of recipes and tips.

My opinion on South Beach is that it is a very healthy diet, but you really would need to read the book (or go to their website) to get a clear picture of whether it's for you. Good luck on your goal.
