I went to my doctor today for the first time since starting CAD, and was a little nervous that he was going to tell me that he didn't like Lo-Carb plans or something like that, I was SOOO relieved to find that he thinks it's great! He's gonna test my cholestoral more because I wanted to be cautious and make sure I'm not doing damage to myself(not that I really think I am)
Anyway I'm just SOOO happy that my doc isn't gonna hassle me about Low Carbing! :D

My doctor supports the program and my efforts, too...
Every time I go to se him he is so pleased with my progress. It doesn't huert that he too has struggled with weight issues most of his life. In fact, that was the reason I chose to see him in the first place. In addition to not supporting LCing, some doctors are unable to hide their disgust with overweight people. I went to a dcotor like that once. the experience left me scared, and depressed for many months.
I hope he comes back as a fat person in his next life....
Continued success to you!

I like that! A hex on all the prejudice skinny people!!!
I was really glad when my doctor was so happy for me. I don't know why I was nervous, how can a doctor be upset if you say "well I've cut out candy, ice cream, chips etc, and instead I'm eating more vegetables and drinking more water"
By the way Donald, I saw your before/after pics, and way to go!!!
I can't wait til I have lost enough for before/after pics to be dramaticly different...goodbye tummy, hello bathing suit!! (okay, its gonna be awhile before I'm welcoming a bathing suit that gladly! )
