As for the reason there isn't a forum, didn't one of our moderators explain in an earlier post on this thread that SB is not a low carb diet, according to Dr Agaston himself?

Why is there such opposition?
I am doing South Beach and I can tell you it is VERY similar to Sugar Busters, which has its own forum, and is way more low carb than The Zone, which also has its own forum. While you dont count carbs like you do on Atkins, (which I have done for 4 months, btw) I can assure you that it is basically a lower carb plan. Whats the big deal?
