Rating: Summary: Excellent! Review: These recipes are fabulous, and quite easy to follow. This is a perfect complement to the South Beach Diet, which I'd recommend as a lifesaver.
Rating: Summary: Betty Swollocks Review: This book was useless, I still weigh exactly 1 ton. It didnt taste very nice either, I thought by consuming it and all its dieting knowledge, it would make one thin.

Rating: Summary: Buy it NOW! Review: This cookbook is incredible, even if you aren't on the South Beach Diet. It just has healthy, sensible recipes that are DELICIOUS!! I've made many of the recipes, and they have been hits with my husband, which is saying a lot! He loves his carbs!!I will agree with other reviewers that this book does involve a lot of chopping. But, that's to be expected when you are cooking with fresh ingredients and avoiding processed foods. However, I have three kids, one of which is a 6 week old, and I've been able to cook the recipes. It's worth the work, trust me!
Rating: Summary: MY NEW BRIDE AND I GOT FAT ON OU HONEYMOON Review: We put on 15 pounds (...), and that was a big problem. She is a bikini model and I am a fitness trainer, so it's important to both our jobs that we look great. This book made it real easy to stay with the South Beach program, and we just dropped that weight right off with no problem. Now we eat these recipes just because they tast good. This was one of the best books we ever got from our wedding -- every bit as great as the "Wedding Dance" and "New Sex Now" dvds.
Rating: Summary: The cookbook that passed our road test! Review: We've now had over 30 patients in our cardiology practice "road-test" and try many of the recipes in Dr. Agatston's companion volume to his popular South Beach Diet. The response has been overwhelmingly favorable, both in taste as well as in weight loss.
The condiment recipes, like South Beach Barbecue Sauce and South Beach Teriyaki sauce, have gotten rave reviews from our patients, as well as some of the unique vegetarian entrees, like tofu cacciatore and baked Portobello caps with melted goat cheese. Dr. Agatston, a professed chocoholic, concludes with 20 recipes for desserts that use some clever substituting to avoid excess sugar, flour, and unhealthy oils.
The Cookbook is also a graphically-beautiful book, with full-color photos accompanying many, if not most, of the recipes.
Rating: Summary: And now a cookbook. Review: While the original SBD was interesting now we have a cookbook.
Enough already!
