[QUOTE="LittleDudesMom, post: 133654, member: 805"] Hey Marg, I would venture to guess that the Atkins diet is the last thing your doctor would want you on if your liver is "collecting" fat. Extremes in fat are part of that plan! I was thinking on the same lines as Linda - water. I know you are heading for winter down under so the ocean is out, but wondering if there was a fairly close location with an indoor pool nearby? If not a gym type setting, many senior centers or physical rehabilitation facilities have a pool. One rehab center in our neighborhood does open their doors to those with health concerns, regardless of age, with a "note" from your doctor. Your bones and muscles won't know you are excercising when you are in the water. However, sounds to me like it's more than excersice, it's more metabolic. The GI or the Zone might be worth looking into. WW is great, it's what I've been doing and I've lost 20 pounds in 7 weeks, but I'm not sure that's what you need. I'm thinking you are going to have to really limit sugars and fats and increase the fiber through vegetables and whole grains. Pop on over to the Healthful Living board and just copy and paste your original post. There may be some folks over there with some additional ideas. Hopefully there is a way to do what you need without medications. Sharon [/QUOTE]
