The Carbohydrate Loving Dietitian is about a middle-aged woman’s weight loss journey. Three different diets were tested over a six-month period by a dietitian, who possesses degrees in nutrition and exercise, yet still struggles with her weight and food intake. Although there is research and scientific data presented, it is primarily a journal of one woman’s ups and downs of weight control. Recommended nutrition and exercise tips for weight loss are reviewed and presented here and then incorporated into a very personalized journey. This book details the successes and frustrations that occur when trying to lose weight. Throughout the book, examples are given of the problems faced while dieting, with a little bit of humor and a few puns tossed in along the way. PROs and CONs are presented for each of the three diets, with a wrap-up at the end of which diet works best. The book is not intended to provide medical advice. Its intention is to inspire one to take control of their own health, in collaboration with their health care team.
