My most favorite cookbook - by far!!!

2008-08-21
I purchase cookbooks like most women purchase shoes - and this is by far, my most favorite cookbook. I use at least 4 recipes a week, and so far, all have been delicious. All the recipes are very fast - I am a Mom with two toddlers, and I don't have time for a lot of prep and cooking.
We love the Baked Pesto Chicken, Chile Beef Burritos, Shrimp Stir-fry, Whole Wheat Penne w/ Eggplant, Sweet Potato Fries, Warm Steak Sandwiches - Really everything we have made!

Tasty and easy, healthy recipes!

I don't like to think I'm on a diet, just that I eat healthy food. What's great about this cookbook are the simple recipes, most ingredients you already have (or need to make better buying choices), and the recipes are not time consuming. I also like that most of the portions are for 2-4 servings, so I can easily know how many meals I have. All the recipes are fresh and appetizing (certainly not like the old Weight Watchers meals)! I've been making a new recipe each day and they're great. And, all recipes are worthy of guests... they never even realize it's Southbeach!

Great diet!

Great recipes! Easy diet! The first two weeks are the hardest and I really felt tired in the afternoons, I love bread and sweets, but if you can get past those first two weeks then you have it made.

I enjoy some of the recipes in this book, however I am finding a problem with it. I am one person living alone and so many of the recipes are for 4 or 6 people. The recipes that I have made of the larger portions are certainly tasty and that is the problem, there is so much food and it tastes good, so I overeat and that negates any good that I am doing. I do wish they would put out a cookbook for the many who are living alone or as a couple who want to help themselves and become healthier without so much food being prepared. Some of you may think, well just halve the recipes but I am not a good cook and often I find it just does not taste the same. Please a cookbook for one or two servings in a lie flat book format with bigger print size would be wonderful.

South Beach Diet works miracles!

2008-05-27
I went on the South Beach Diet in November 2005. In one year I went from weighing 280 lbs to weighing 215! My cholesterol went from 221 to 141,and my blood pressure went from 150/100 to 117/77 (with NO drugs). Also I lost 6 inches around my waist. It went from 42 inches to 36.As of May 2008, I currently weigh 212 (at 5' 11') and am trying to work my way to 195 now.I own all of the books and am one of the biggest advocates of the diet. I would recommend this book to anyone!

Great quick recipes!

I love this book! There are some repeat meals inside but they are all good! Some are so great too because I can add rice or pasta for my husband to eat with the meal (as he doesn't need to loose any weight) Like the Indian Dishes or Thai or even the Swedish Meatballs! I love that they are all so quick and easy! Helps since I work full time and love to eat great food! A great addition to my collection :)
