help encourage them to reach their health and weight-loss
goals.”
“I have been following the principles of the South Beach Diet for quite
some time,” said Decker. “What I love about the new South Beach Diet
program is that not only does it fuel your body with the foods you need,
but it teaches you how to eat to achieve optimal health. I want to help
other women and men live a healthy lifestyle and educate them that
dieting doesn’t have be about deprivation.”
As a busy mom, Decker says the South Beach Diet makes staying healthy
easy.
“My days often consist of juggling work while running around after my
kids, and sometimes I forget that I need to focus on myself,” added
Decker. “With the South Beach Diet, I can easily grab a meal, a bar or a
shake, and be confident that I am eating healthy, even on the go.”
Rolling out this year as a new structured meal delivery program, the
South Beach Diet boasts a menu
of nearly 75 frozen and pantry-ready meals and snacks. The most popular

Decker also has her favorites, which she says give her the flexibility
and convenience she needs to eat right.
“I’m a busy mom and I don’t always have the time to cook a big meal. I
love being able to grab the Banana Nut or Blueberry Ricotta Muffins for
breakfast. For lunch, the Vegetable Chili is one of my favorites. And I
can’t seem to get enough of the Toffee Nut Bars. They’re addictive.”
