I've not tried SB, though I did go on the similarly-principled (carbs bad) Atkins diet (and the actual plan, not the faddish eating habits that sprung up around it) and lost 50 pounds. And it was not cheap, either! Unfortunately, I've gained most of it back

Can you garden? We grow tomatoes, cukes, peppers, green and yellow beans, lettuce, spinach, swiss chard, beets, zucchini, squash, herbs...probably a few more I forgot to mention.

DW and I are actually gardening this year. With our new house, this is the first time we've actually had a real lawn we could garden in! The prior owner tells us that the ground is really fertile (and if the herb garden he left for us is any indication, it's REALLY fertile). I'm looking forward to the veggie savings, though this year we're starting small (some beans, some peppers, some pumpkins).
