AJPratt said:I just found this thread. Dave and I started to see a nutritionist 3 weeks ago. Actually, my PL lady friend started seeing her and lost over 45 pounds. So, Dave is down 15 pounds and I am down 10. It has been quite an education. She did warn me that he would lose faster. We were given food journals and different lists of food at different times. Its amazing that everything you thought you knew was wrong. You shouldn't starve yourself, you should actually eat more frequently and have carbs earlier in the day.
Here is her site, if anyone wants more info: http://www.nancyadlernutrition.com/plan.html

As far as sweeteners go, she recommends Stevia, also a natural sweetener. If we have anything with artificial sweeteners, we have to limit them to two or three a day (if we have coffee or tea, we can have 3). She says that Splenda is "better" than aspartame, but really, you need to moderate your intake of anything artificial. I think she would rather us just stick to natural stuff when possible. I have posted before about aspartame and Splenda, but I guess if you are diabetic, they would be better than sugar for you? Sorta like the lesser of the two evils.ChefBeckyD said:Anne,
I checked out her site - very interesting - really alot the way I already eat. It wasn't clear to me her view on artificial sweeteners? What does she recommend? I don't eat artificial sweeteners, and very little sugar, but do use some Agave Nectar, which is a natural sweetener, but doesn't mess with blood sugar levels - so doesn't produce sugar cravings.
I have an appointment w/ a nutritionist for June 11 - I am very excited to go! I was very fortunate, because she is really in demand, and usually is booked 6-8 weeks out, but when I called, I was able to get in in 2 weeks because of a cancellation!

I just need to get my booty out and DO IT! I like to take Holly the Husky with me when I train, but that doesn't work so well on the bike, so I'm not so good about biking and swimming...
I think the "e" at the end makes us like that!Brandie said:Note to everyone who wasn't at our meeting: Anne, our director, kept stealing spreader-fulls of frosting out of the bowl while the meeting was going on before I could do my "lesson" on decorating the Barbie bride cake!
Hey Jae - I live in Jenison......we are practically neighbors! I just left a post for you on the "directors issues" thread about visiting my cluster.JAE said:Good morning ladies!
This site is my new obsession. Too bad I stayed up so late last night reading posts! I just wanted to encourage everyone to get out and walk for 30 minutes and/or do strength training for at least 10 minutes. EAT MORE VEGETABLES! My Bible study went out to Logan's last night. Because it's a steak house, Logans doesn't have much in the way of veggie entree's. I ordered a sweet potato w/o butter (they put butter on it anyway, I took as much off as I could) and a grilled vegetable skewer. Don't get me wrong. I ate the bread. It was sooo good. No time for oatmeal this morning, but I'll have raisin bran. I'm all about the fiber!

The Fiber 35 Diet is a weight loss and health program that focuses on increasing dietary fiber intake to improve overall health and aid in weight loss. It was created by nutritionist Brenda Watson and is based on the concept of consuming 35 grams of fiber per day.
The Fiber 35 Diet works by increasing fiber intake, which helps to keep you feeling full and satisfied, regulates blood sugar levels, and supports healthy digestion. It also involves incorporating whole, nutrient-dense foods into meals and snacks and reducing processed and high-sugar foods.
The Fiber 35 Diet is generally safe and suitable for most adults. However, it is always best to consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new diet or health program, especially if you have any underlying health conditions or are taking medications.
Yes, the Fiber 35 Diet is not just for weight loss, but also for improving overall health. Even if you don't have a lot of weight to lose, following the principles of the diet can still benefit your health and help you maintain a healthy weight.
Results may vary from person to person, but many people who follow the Fiber 35 Diet report feeling more energized, having better digestion, and losing weight. It is important to note that results also depend on individual commitment and following the program properly.
