Out of curiosity I ordered this guide along with the cookbook. Before this, my family and I had been eliminating alot of the foods mentioned (and we all lost a few inches along the way) but I learned after reading this reference that I've been doing it all wrong! I love the concept and can see how easy it would be to make the necessary changes. So now I am ordering the book for a more complete understanding. Very informative and easy to carry.

A good list but organized really strangely - by food groups that don't make sense to me. Avocado in list of "fats" not vegetables or fruits. Hard to find things you look for specifically. That said, I do use it often to check on foods we aren't sure about.

Between the two of us, my husband and I have lost over 100 lbs by following the South Beach Diet. Having said that...I'm a recovering carb-o-holic...this diet is easy to follow and this book is an excellent resource for planning meals and shopping for the week.
