The South Beach Diet
The South Beach diet is a weight loss system started by Dr. arthur agatston which encourages the consumption of "good carbohydrates" instead of "bad carbs" and "good fats" instead of "bad fats"
Dr. agatston developed his dietary regime for people who have heart disease, as a consequence of his detailed analysis of scientific studies completed on other weight loss regimes.
Good foods include, canadian bacon, chicken breast, seafood, provolone cheese, peanut butter, lowfat or nonfat milk and some vegatables, such as butter beans, lettuce and spinach.


Low calorie diet

Rather obviously, the low calorie diet depends on the fact that in order to lose weight, it is important to eat less calories than you use.

The calorie defined?
The calorie is the standard unit for energy measurement in dieting. The food calorie is the the amount of energy required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of water by 1 degree centigrade at atmospheric pressure. If something contains more calories, then it will will give you more energy to use when it is converted.

Examples of low calorie foods include cabbage, mushrooms, melon, lower fat hot-dogs, and low-fat cheese.


Flavonoid superfoods
(inlcudes olive oil, kale, soya and thyme)

The large family of compounds known as flavonoids present in these fruits and vegetables are thought by experts to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
Researchers investigating the effects of flavonoids think they may also have many health giving properties, amongst them, anti-dermatitis and antiplatelet properties.
Many also help you lose weight, so you should add them to your weight loss program.

"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
