How to Get Fiber on South Beach Diet Phase One
The South Beach Diet was created by Dr. Agatston to help people not only lose weight but keep the weight off. The South Beach Diet consists of three phases. Those wanting to lose 10 pounds or more should start with Phase One. Phase One of the South Beach Diet is designed to jump-start your weight loss while reducing your food cravings. It is the most restrictive phase with many foods off limits at this time. Restricted foods re-enter the diet in Phases Two and Three.
