good "cheat sheet" on carbs
This info can be found in the South Beach book and cookbooks but it is a quick and fairly complete guide of what carbs are best to eat with an easy to read guide of total carbs, sugar, fat, fiber and which phase certain foods can/should be eaten in. Also, it's smaller so fits in the car or purse to carry with you when out or grocery shopping so you can quickly check a certain food or catagory. Not necessary but a good resource if you don't have the cookbooks.

Good Fats and Good Carbs - great book
You need this book as a guide to take to the grocery story to make sure you are getting the right foods as well as the foods that the recipes in the companion diet books call for. We have referred to it every time we shop to be sure we're doing it right. Today's food labeling makes it a challenge. The best advice in the book is to check the ingredients to see where the fats and carbs are really coming from - don't just rely on the numbers on the Nutrition Facts on the package label.

Very Helpful
I had this book before and lost it. Glad to have it again. Great reference source when not sure if something is worth wasting carbs on.
