[quote=Anonymous]No, this isn't the only way to lose weight. It is one way, though, if it appeals to you. My husband chose this way, pretty much mandated by the nutritionist associated with his bariatric surgery practice. But I think I'd go crazy on that diet, plus it affronts my whole food sensibilities, so I chose something else to lose weight. I cut out sugar and processed carbs, including rice and whole wheat, for about 4 months, and overall tried not to overeat. But all dairy was full fat, plenty of olive oil, and a ton of vegetables and fruit. I really like eating this way! I've lost the weight I wanted to, and now have added back in modest portions of sugar and processed carbs. Husband has stayed on his diet, too, and has lost and kept weight off. To each his own.

For what it is worth, when I had my husband ask the nutritionist why they recommended things like fat free, sugar free pudding mix and Lean Cuisine type things, she said it is because no one knows how to cook or likes whole foods. They are trained in nutrition school on micro and macro nutrients, not on whole foods and cuisines.[/quote]
