Publisher Description

In the all-new The South Beach Diet Supercharged, Dr. Arthur Agatston shows you how to rev up your metabolism and lose weight faster while following the proven healthy eating principles of the original diet: choose good carbohydrates, good fats, lean protein, and low-fat dairy. Collaborating with Dr. Joseph Signorile, a professor of exercise physiology at the University of Miami, Dr. Agatston presents a cutting-edge, three-phase workout that perfectly complements the three phases of the diet itself. Based on the latest exercise science, this ease-into-it fitness program combines low- and high-intensity interval exercise with a focus on walking and functional core body-toning exercises. The result: You'll feel better and you'll burn more fat and calories all day long.

"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."

    " 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.

    " 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. "

    " 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! "

    " 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. "

    " 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. "

    " 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. "

    " I hate the name South Beach Diet - it sounds like such a fad diet. People continue to confuse this diet as a "low carb" diet when it fact it is just healthy eating, plain and simple. The new information in the book is worth reading, and the recipes are delicious! "
