A little help from the Dr.
I went to my Dr. yesterday and expressed my frustration at not losing any weight so far. In fact I have gained a couple of pounds. Not good. I have been religious about doing my P90x workouts and have been pretty good at staying in my calorie range. She was very helpful and has given me a very specific diet and a little prescription to help jump start the ol metabolism and keep the cravings at bay. The diet is strict. Breakfast is plain yogurt, cottage cheese or eggs. Lunch is salad with a lean protein. Dinner is a lean protein with broccoli or another green veggie. I can eat all the veggies I want and most fruits. The only fruits that are off limit are grapes, melons and bananas. No carbs at all. I am hoping this works because not seeing results kind of stinks. I go back to the Dr. in two weeks to see if there is any progress. I should state that this is a Dr. supervised program so I don't recommend it to anyone. If this does not work than I think genetics are to blame :)

Can't wait to hear the results. Glad you consulted your doc!
ReplyDeleteSounds like Atkins to jump start a change. That has worked for many people I know. Good luck with the "no carbs." I've done that once and it was tough, but it worked...even with an undiagnosed (at the time) underactive thyroid.
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you! Way to keep up with P90x ...BRING IT!
ReplyDeleteHope it does the trick, I would hate to have to give up those fruits. I hope you don't miss them too much.
ReplyDeleteSometimes a doctor supervised diet helps. My brother did one and it worked wonders...wonder what your doctor will have you add back into your diet?
