The Diet Logs

With so many shows, articles and even blogs about dieting, many people are going on fad diets and other diets.  But it is important to remember to talk to your doctor.  Find out what your healthy weight goal should be based on your height, age, ethnic group, health conditions and living style.  Too often, people set unrealistic weight goals that cannot be achieved and become discouraged.  This can result in over-eating and returning to unhealthy lifestyle choices.

Your doctor needs to know that you are dieting. They can suggest foods and food groups that will complement your current health care plan.  Don’t leave your doctor out of the loop when it comes to exercise and calorie counting.  Not only can your doctor provide you with sound medical advice, but he can lead you the right way to what is best for your body and your particular needs.
