The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a weight loss system created by Cardiologist arthur agatston which encourages that one should eat "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Dr. agatston invented his dietary regime as an aid to patients with heart conditions, based on his analysis of scientific data completed on other weight loss systems.
Approved foods include, canadian bacon, turkey bacon, seafood, cottage cheese, pistachio nuts, eggs and certain vegetables, like black beans, collard greens and snow peas.


The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi (or glycaemic index) diet system is reliant on the gi index, a list showing food types and a score illustrating the ease that the energy in the food type gets changed to sugar in the dieters bloodstream. The claim is that long-acting foods (ie those with a low Gi score), suppress your appetite for longer and mean that you can eat fewer food without craving snacks all the time.
It's also especially beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI food types are helpful in managing rises in blood glucose secretion.


Cruciferous vegetables, Super foods that also help your Dieting
(eg. Arugula, Boiled potatoes, Turnips and Chinese cabbage)
Altthough not always popular with children, these vegetables are jam-packed with vitamins (eg.vitamin c), minerals (eg. potassium and selenium), isothiocyanates, antioxidents and indole-3-carbinol.

Over and above their numerous other health and weight loss benefits, the nutrients in these are believed by doctors to reduce the risk of cancer.

"A good cook is the peculiar gift of the gods. He must be a perfect creature from the brain to the palate, from the palate to the finger's end.
"Walter Savage Landor"


"A diet is the penalty we pay for exceeding the feed limit."

"Reality check: you can never, ever, use weight loss to solve problems that are not related to your weight. At your goal weight or not, you still have to live with yourself and deal with your problems. You will still have the same husband, the same job, the same kids, and the same life. Losing weight is not a cure for life"
Phillip C. McGraw
