"In just a couple weeks I've been able to regulate my blood sugar so I don't have hypoglycemia spikes. For that, I thank my doctor for recommending South Beach. It's accessible to the average reader and I don't feel like I'm on a diet. I just need lots of protein, fiber and whole grains. If anything, I chastise myself when I don't eat enough, which is kind of cool. Now that my body is working again, my brain can get back to my usual reading diet."

“An overview of Agatston’s philosophy on optimal nutrition, a recap of the diet, detailed daily fitness routines, tips on exercising efficiently, sample meal plans and simple recipes (Moroccan lemon chicken; maple-almond flan) are among the many features that make this appealing, accessible volume a worthwhile update on the original.”

— AudioFile" The morning after I finished the original South Beach book, I checked this out of the library so I would have as much information as possible. Pretty much all of the diet information remains the same (with a few minor changes), but I'm really glad he added a section talking about the importance of excersise and offering some workout suggestions. "
— Tina, 1/24/2014" A repeat of the first but with exercises. if you have not read either, go for this I suppose. Has all the info you need but with less WHY. Still prefer the first book. "
— Jessica, 1/23/2014" read it; greatly appreciate its principles; gonna set my feet (and my grocery list) and see what happens over the next six months. strength to me; but i sense i'm ready to drop that excess weight; benefits to my health to follow ... that's the plan anyway and this plan seems a sturdy one "
— Maggie, 1/18/2014" Highly recommend if you are thinking about going on a diet. I'm a pound away from my goal and now consider this a way of eating for the rest of my life. "
— Robin, 1/13/2014" I got it on Kindle and wish I had bought the regular book so I could make copies of the allowed foods pages and exercises. Otherwise, it's a great diet and I plan to start Monday! May the force be with me! "
— Jordan, 1/10/2014" Useful and informative information for anyone wanting to eat and live a healthy. "
— Khazanah, 1/2/2014" This version, compared with the first, is much more informative. With the first version, I felt confused and wasn't sure how to begin. Though I still have questions, I felt this book covered more basics and provided a good foundation. "
— Sara, 12/24/2013" This book was more like a science book...and it just kept going. I had lost interest in the diet by the time I even got to the exercise program. No offense, I am not stupid however I need a diet that requires just a little less reading. "
— Laura, 11/7/2013" There is some really sound advice in the South Beach Diet. I really enjoyed this version because the majority of the book focused on incorporating exercise into the diet. "
— Jeannie, 8/13/2013" Took away some key points such as the importance of interval training and eating beans and veggies. "
— Ashley, 6/11/2013" Good book telling the reader alot about diet and lifestyle change instead of dieting. Very much the same as a Mediteranian diet of lots of fresh fruits and vegatables and vegie protien. Fish and other white meat instead of red meat. "
