Types of diet The South Beach Diet The South Beach diet is a weight loss system created by Miami, florida-area cardiologist arthur agatston which emphasizes that dieters should be eating "good carbs" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats" Doctor agatston developed his dietary regime for his cardiac patients, as a result of his detailed study of scientific studies on other dietary studies. Examples of good foods include, lean beef, chicken breast, clams, fat-free cheeses, almonds, nonfat yoghurt and some vegatables, like asparagus, lettuce and water chestnuts. The Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition system is based around the gi index, a chart showing food types and a score illustrating the rapidity with which the carbs in the food gets transformed to glucose in your body. The believe is that slow acting types of food (ie with a low Gi score), keep you satiated for longer and help to reduce your consumption of food without feeling you are missing out. It is also extremely beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI foods are beneficial in preventing surges in glucose levels. The Atkins’ Diet Developed by dr. robert atkins in the 1960s, the popular atkins diet achieved most of its fame during the last few years. Although not accepted by all scientists, it enables weight loss whilst allowing foods that are normally considered bad for diets, such as fatty meat and cheeses. Unlike other diets, with the atkins diet you are encouraged to eat meat and fat, it is carbohydrates that need to be avoided. It is often referred to as a high protein, low carb, nutrition system. With this diet, the foods you should avoid are processed and refined sugar, milk, white bread, starchy vegetables, white rice and white flour, including cereals and pasta made from white flour. Unlike other diets, on the atkins diet the foods you are encouraged to eat are nutrient-rich unprocessed foods like meat, fish and poultry. You also can eat shellfish, regular full fat cheese, butter and olive oil.

"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
