In 2003 I weighed around 300 lbs and a doctor told me I'd never be 50. (I was 40 at the time). He sent me to a nutritionalist who actually taught me a lot of things I did not know. I guess the first and foremost thing was that liquids usually contained remarkable amounts of calories.

After seeing her a few times she had me keep a food diary and geek that I am I found a software database program called Diet and Exercise Assistant.

That was some years ago and I now use a program called Calorie King. I weigh right around 190 or so and went from wearing 46" pants to 34" pants.

I read a lot about nutrition and the one thing I can tell you is everyone has an opinion and everyone's opinion is different from everyone else's.

Knowing what I know now 5 years later I wouldn't go to a nutritionalist now however having said that I'm certainly glad that I did see one several years ago.
