South Beach Diet? - GoFuckYourself.com

Vagisil · 07-13-2005, 12:42 AM

OK, I've read some amazing results from people here on this diet. But I've heard from other people that this diet is mainly for "fat" people? I am told it is 'low carb', but I work out at the gyme 6 days a week and am trying to build muscle and it's my understanding that I *need* not only carbs, but PLENTY of carbs.

What are your thoughts? BTW I'm 29yo 5'11" 213lbs. The only part of me that actually looks out of shape is my stomache. I play tennis twice a week also. (This gym thing and the tennis thing is only 3 weeks old, hence why I'm still a big bastard, but I am athletic and every couple years or so I get out of shape for a year, then snap back into form as I am attempting once again now).

And before you jump on me for 'why would you post something like this on a webmaster BBS?', it's because I LOVE YOU PEOPLE.

i heard so many things about this, even in some TV shows, its very effective, you dont need to skip meals and the food are healthy though its quite expensive.

I agree. Its going to cost you to loose all those fats.

Increasing your cardio and reducing your carb intake will show results.

BobG · 07-13-2005, 01:26 AM

as much fish, chicken, rice, pasta, egg whites, oatmeal, wheat bread, vegetables you can eat. A lean steak wont hurt you but once or twice a week only. Cut out the sugar.... no soda, no fruit juice, no cool-aid, no smoothies, no slurpees, no frappacinos, no candy, easy on the gatorade. Run 2 miles or for 20 minutes as slow or fast as you want, 5 days a week . Solid carb meal a half hour before and a half hour after your work outs and a light carb intake 30 minutes before run (oatmeal is good for this). Drink a gallon of water a day. Stick to that plus your workouts consistantly for a while and you'll be all good. You're welcome, pay me later.

Isn't south beach diet where you drink or take something, and spend a week on the can cleaning your colon?

Schwick · 07-13-2005, 12:07 PM

South beach is the same idea as the body for life program.

are you sure about the pasta? I'm trying to loose a kilo or two and have been avoiding pasta because I thought it's as bad as white bread

LittleSassy · 07-13-2005, 01:19 PM

im stickin to my gym....that cant give me abs....lol...:D

billywatson · 07-13-2005, 01:19 PM

I found the diet to be a pain...just try food shopping for the first week, and you'll see what I mean. Then prepping the food? ugh...

Eat less pasta, bread, and potatoes, and excersise. Then watch what happens.

latinasojourn · 07-13-2005, 02:46 PM

as others have said it is not so much about the fad diet, but the physics of calorie intake and metabolism.

1. do a bmi and find out where you are.

2. do a caloric assessment based on your size, activity level, and age and see what you need to not gain or lose weight---i will guess you should be about 2400 calories just to maintain your current size. lots of online tools to help you with this.

3. if the problem is the stomach you should do a different kind of exercise, more aerobic, less strength related...i will suggest bicycling or rope jumping approx 45 minutes/day.

4. lower your calorie intake to about 2000 calories/day---south beach or atkins type diets will help you stave off hunger cravings---get on a diet that you can stay on without being hungry all the time---this usually means eating more protein, cutting out all sugars, and limiting carbs---in 7 to 10 days you will stop feeling hungry if you stick to it.

5. try to lose weight slowly with a goal of maybe 1.5 to 2 pounds per week at your body size, what you are trying to do is a lifestyle change---which means you need a calorie deficit of about 7000 calories each week to accomplish this---so if your basic calorie requirement for maintenance is 2500, reduce your calorie intake to 2000, and further burn off about 300 calories/day thru exercise to put you at 1700/day---this gives you a calorie deficit of 800/day or 5600 week---so you will lose about 1.75 pounds per week.

there's lots more i could say, but buy a diet book (any diet book) and get with it. there is no magic bullet---if you are lazy about counting calories just exercise and buy seattle sutton prepackaged meals---it will achieve the same results if you do a LIFESTYLE change.

it's easier than most people think---and fads are not so necessary---it just takes a steady plan and some time---if you try to do it fast the weight will not stay off.

now, once you get rid of the belly, get ready to start bangin' lots of beaver.
