change the macaroni to whole wheat pasta, the flour to whole wheat flour, and the cheese to lower fat version and it sounds like it could fit in Phase 2.

Remember: the South Beach diet Phase I key to success is reduction of sugars. If the average 1,500-calorie maintenance diet allows 300 grams of sugars, certainly keeping sugar input from noodles to a 7.77-gram per serving limit is not that harmful.
