raeanna- have you thought about going to a nutritionist? Someone who's field of study is the stuff that people eat? I'd image they'd know a lot more than your regular doctor about what to eat and what's best for you.

I had asked that doctor that I previously mentioned to recommend one for me. He poo-pooed the idea and wouldn't help. (I have since heard that he gave pain medication to a man who ultimately had cancer but this Dr never checked for it. The man is dead now.) It's Doctors like this that are making it harder for obese people to loose ANY way or other people to fear going to the Dr altogether.
I have since managed to loose about 10 lbs. I still want to loose more but unless I can't continue at least SOME weightloss in the next couple months I won't worry about seeing one.
I miss my regular Dr - She and her husband went overseas to work as Doctors in some 3rd world country. She would have helped I'm sure.
