South Beach Diet

Hi All,

I've just moved from Texas to Buffalo, NY and am seeing a new doctor. I have been instructed to go on the South Beach Diet in order to facilitate weight loss. I've not been doing very well on the band. I lost 40 lbs in 11 months and then regained 12 in the past 6 weeks. Anyone had success with South Beach? Anyone not had success with the band? Apparently I'm a rare case. Lucky me.

I liked South Beach in my pre-band days. I found that I really liked the food, but if I didn't take the time to prepare my food ahead of time I fell off the wagon. So my advice would be to make sure you pack your lunch for work and always have good food in your fridge at home so you're not tempted.

Good advice all, thanks for the tips.

Hello! I have used the South Beach Diet and am currently following it here and there. You will get all the info you ever wanted on Prevention.com then go to the South Beach Diet forums. I think I will eat South Beach primarily after I get banded. It is very easy and if you go off one meal, you just start South Beach the next meal.
