1. I'm not intimately familiar with South Beach.

IIRC, it is a modified version of Atkins, high protein, lower carb, don't know about fat. But, from what I do know of it, I think it would be a reasonable approach for your needs, as long as you are careful to control blood sugar.

Really, as you know, no magic bullet. Just consistency, practice, and motivation. Frequent small meals, a lot of water, a lot of non-starchy vegetables, quality protein sources, as much exercise as possible.

If you fall off, get right back on again, but don't beat yourself up over it.
