[QUOTE="Nomad, post: 688198, member: 4152"] I'm sorry I did not catch everything this doctor said...just heard bits and pieces. I did recall he offered a few different variations of diets and one was low calorie. I think since I'm short, 900 calories might not actually be all that extreme when one factors in my height. My doctor who recommended it for me stressed that I would have to eat only healthy foods, but I still sneak in a little treat now and then. I think we all have to pay close attention to our bodies, because sometimes we can tell what works better for us as individuals than the nutritionists.m maybe a subtle change makes a nice difference. I went to a dietician once and she put me on a near vegan diet and I gained three pounds the first week. I told her my body seemed to do better with relatively high protein. I'm trying to pay close attention. I've lowered my animal protein, but feel for me personally, I need some. Obviously, flour and sugar are horrible. It's such a struggle for all of us I think. PS our cousin, who is close to 70, is going to a nutrionist. Omg. She (The nutritionist) suggested a slice or two of whole grain bread a day. The rest seems fine in my book. Anyway, it's been weeks and she hasn't lost an ounce. Her daughter who is close to forty and slender told her to greatly reduce the bread. Maybe 1/2 piece a day. She (cousin) is afraid to do it because of what the nutritionist said. I think she should try it because she needs to do something different.
