Diet suggestions please...
If you don't like what I write, then don't read it. Other than that, quit
being so lazy and use Google to at least get some background knowledge before asking any more retarded questions. -- "If I can't *count* the carbs, it can't be part of a low-carb diet." --- jpatti "Alex" wrote in message news Jeri wrote: "Alex" wrote in message om Hi everyone, This is kind of a last ditch effort to get my health and diet back on track. I'm almost 30, my weight is 275, male, and my cholesterol is around 180. One problem though is my blood pressure, which stays around 120-140/80-90. So now the diet debate. I've had good luck on the low-carb diet, loosing 15 pounds already this year, but I'm wanting to make a true change in my eating habits. Even though the meats, eggs, etc are nice and I have a good tasty variety, I'm thinking it might be better to go with a more traditional diet (fruits, veggies, etc). snip Hi Alex, Eating vegetables and low GI fruits is not only allowed on a low carb diet it's encouraged. If you weren't eating them then you might want to take a look at a few low carb books to see how to do low carb correctly. Hi Everyone, I am eating veggies, like green beans, leafy salad, olives, etc, but I've been saying away from fruits like apples, oranges, and the like. I'm wanting to hit the gym to build more muscle in hopes that the muscle will help burn fat and help me tone-up a bit. And for limiting carbs, I've eliminated anything that's made with white flower (white breads, pasta, pasteries, etc), sugary foods, and sweets. I've also been drinking diet sodas for about 3-4 months now (diet DP mainly). Personal goals are to exercise more, drink more water, and I'd like to eat more veggies and fruits if possible. Like I said, I've been on the low carb diet (off and on anyway) since January, and I've already dropped abount 15 pounds. My problem with the carbs diet is if I splurge for a weekend I easily gain 5 or more pounds back. And yes this is another personal goal... no slurging Thanks for the words of encouragement and ideas.. they do help. I do however wish folks like JC Der Koenig would keep their negative opinions to themselves. I'm here to get help and support, not to listen to folks like that. But to all else, thanks Alex. |

Don't tell me, let me guess...
You're a vegetarian? -- "If I can't *count* the carbs, it can't be part of a low-carb diet." --- jpatti "Evelyn Ruut" wrote in message ... "Sseaott" SseaottATcomcastDOTnet wrote in message ... ATTENTION EVERYONE! After doing some research, I have discovered JC's weight. How does 4 big ones sound? Now I understand why she is so bitter! How sad... BITCH, you are the LAST one to talk about anyone being fat! Then she is more deserving of our compassion than our hatred. You should realize that people who are experiencing that kind of self loathing will often be angry and strike out at others. She needs a hug more than our contempt. Offer her loving thoughts and surround her with white light in your mind. If it is your inclination to do so, say a prayer for her to gain wisdom and to find a way to control her world. -- Evelyn (To reply to me personally, remove sox) "JC Der Koenig" wrote in message m... You don't have what it takes. Resign yourself to being fat and unhealthy for the rest of your life. |

Clearly you have made up your own low carb diet on your own because there isn't a real one out there that fits this description. So my suggestion is that you get one of the popular low carb books, read it without any preconceived notions, and follow the actual directions. All low carb plans stress at least veggies and there isn't a low carb plan out there that keeps you from eating fruit for more than 14 days. I know following the directions is a lot more work than making it up on your own, but it works better than making it up on your own. Go for it! |
