FRUGAL BLISS: Get The South Beach Diet Supercharged Book for FREE!

Posted on May 5, 2010 | 7 comments

                          

A Book for Everyone!
Whether you have some pounds to lose or are just looking for some new tips and
yummy recipes for living a healthy lifestyle, everyone can benefit from the
South Beach Diet Supercharged book.  Written by cardiologist, Arthur
Agatston, the diet was birthed out of years of research with heart patients and
a goal of decreasing the risks of heart disease (the No. 1 killer of women!).    

I’m adding this book to my personal library. Now.
Having a history of heart disease on both sides of our family, I recently checked
this book out from our local library. After using the recipes and meal plans for a
few weeks I’ve decided to make the South Beach Diet Supercharged book part
of our permanent book collection. Not only are the recipes delicious, it feels 
really great knowing that I’m feeding my family food that we enjoy and
also benefits our health!     

I could go on (read the reviews on Amazon if you want to learn what
others think), but suffice it to say that I love, love, LOVE, what I’m learning from
this book and the positive transformation to our family’s eating habits (not
to mention our waist lines)!    

Savings Bliss = Getting the South Beach Diet book FREE!
When I decided to get this book, I was so happy to discover that it is being
offered for FREE (with shipping) from the South Beach Diet website.     

Getting the book FREE is pretty simple:    

  1. Go to the SouthBeachDiet.com site to sign up for your FREE book.
  2. Pay $4.95 for shipping and handling.  You’ll also receive free
    membership access to the South Beach Diet Online Web site for 14 days.
  3. Frugal friends, be sure to note:  You might want to cancel the free
    trial membership so you don’t get charged membership fees after
    2 weeks. You can cancel any time within those first two weeks to
    avoid the fees.  See website for details.

P.S. Most of the recipes are great for anyone who needs to cook for special
diabetic or gluten-free / celiac diets as they emphasize low-sugar, wheat-free,
and trans-fat free ingredients.   

Have you tried the South Beach Diet?  We would love to hear your
stories, tips, and recipes!  Please share with us in the comments section.  

    

Enjoy and Share! :)

Fragrant sprigs of mint, irises, rose cuttings and bulbs…everyone brings their
favorite and takes home something new! Here is the scoop from our terrific
reader, Lin:

Bring plants to trade, but if you have no plants, try garden art,
potting soil, pots, or plant hangers ~ anything that a gardener might
like. We have gardeners that will accept baked goods as trade, or
perhaps gift certificates from McDonald’s, Sonic or Wal-mart.
While we arrange pre-trades…almost every gardener brings extras
to the party.

Details, details
What:  Learn more about the Fort Worth Gardenweb plant trade event here.
If you want to participate in trades beforehand, you can take part
in the Gardenweb forum chat by clicking here and here.
When: Saturday, April 10 ~ 9:00am
Where:  At the pavilion in front of the Fort Worth Zoo.
Directions: From I-30 at the western edge of downtown Ft Worth, go
SOUTH on University not quite a mile; turn left into the zoo area, & follow the
path through several curves. When you see the ball fields on your right, slow
down. Turn right into the parking area, hop out, & do a happy dance!
Directions are verbatim from Lin ~ I love any directions that end with
“hop out & do a happy dance!” :)
Cost:  The event is free, but take a moment to read the trade tips before attending.

Thanks Lin for this great tip!

  

Enjoy & Share! :)
