about

Hello All,
I am counsellor with over 12 years experience specializing in parenting, families, youth and mental health. I answer questions in a blunt and straightforward way so if you are looking for coddling or really touchy feely type advice thats not me I provide real solutions for your problems and concrete suggestions in other words I tell you the plain truth I don't sugarcoat.

I am really worried these days with the easy access to the internet and all the false information that is out there and the fact that people believe it!! So please ask first. I don't claim to have all the answers but I can claim that NOTHING will shock me you can try though :)

I look forward to hearing you thoughts and questions.

advice

ok well im going to try the no carbohydrates diet, i no its not healthy but i need to loose weight fast. but what i need to no is what food it out there with no carbohydrates in it? because i cant seem to find any food without carbohydrates. and if i stick to this diet. when will i begin to see results?
thatnks so much you dont no how much i will appreciate it if you answer me.

I have done the Atkins diet and it works great, if you want to lose weight rapidly but necessarily keep it off.

Ok here is what you should be eating:
Lots of Steak, beef, chicken and fish (nothing breaded though)
Eggs, bacon, fry it or bake it use butter (no margarine) you are allowed whip cream (real only)
Lots of Cheese
for the first little while NO FRUIT (first 2 weeks)
The only veggies are spinich, cauliflower, broccoli, most salads, no tomatos no carrots though
Cream is good - Full fat
No Milk
Drink lots of water
Macadamia nuts are good for snacking
crystal light is ok
Try and hold off on caffiene for the first couple of weeks
mayonaise is good not miracle whip
Also atkins sells bars that are ok once in a while and will deal with your chocolate cravings. (the endulgence ones are pretty good)also splenda is 1g./pack of sugar (splenda is a sugar substitute better then any others.)

Keep in mind that this is NOT FOR LONG TERM and you need to start re-introducing carbs slowly after 2 weeks. Soon after you start your body will go into kitosis (sp?) you will lose a noticeable amount of weight within the first week/week and 1/2.

If you are young talk to your parents first. By the way you are supposed to eat 20gr carbs a day in the beginning no carbs is way un-healthy.

Make sure you have NO potatos, pasta, rice etc.

Good Luck
