Hi TN-Gal~~
I'm not very familar with SB so I'm sure that somebody who is will answer you soon. I can tell you that with the south beach diet you will not only be looking at your sugar/GI index but you will be limiting wheat and starchy carbs in the first 2 weeks. This diet also looks at healthy fats and carbs . It's not a high fat/low carb like Atkins and it's not filled with sugar-free foods either. It is definately different that any other diet out there and it is also one that you can continue with for a lifetime. When you get your book, it will explain everything. And don't forget that we are always here to help answer questions.

I hope to see you on the SBD threads

Hello TN-Girl!
I don't know about the differences either, but I LOVE South Beach. No counting!!
And like Sil said, this is a plan for life.
Come and join us!

Hi TN-Gal,

I am no expert on either plan, but I did read up on both before I chose South Beach. Sugar Busters made sense and seemed sound, but the big difference I saw was South Beach=simplicity. I too spent several months on Atkins, and did not wish to switch from counting one thing to another. I started South Beach Diet this week, and I love it. To me it is the best of both worlds.
