The south beach diet, like all diets is a crock of shit. As said earler, eat healthy and workout. Anything else is a waste of time. This "diet" is just a marketing business, not based on scientific fact. Parts of the book (like not eating a lot of sugar) is probably a good idea and other parts are just shit.

Even really, really stupid diets like Atkins will find someone you know who swears by it, as any diet (even the worst) usually work for a while because people are eating less calories.

If you want to diet, count overall calories NOT carbs. A calorie of steak or a calorie of wheat is still 1 calorie and it doesn't really matter much which you eat as far as loosing weight.
