    At a party, I happened to talk with a retired physician about low-carb/keto diets for diabetes remission. I explained what Dr. Unwin has shown. She didn't believe it. The simple treatment of reducing or eliminating carbs in the diet for remission of Type 2 diabetes seems too good to be true to that doctor and probably to most physicians.

      remission of carbohydrate intolerance by reducing carbohydrate is not cure. A cure is being able to eat normal carbohydrates and not have an abnormal insulin response. The carnivores who claim 'cure' are not cured they are simply not eating carbs. If people can 'fix' their diabetes and eat normal food and have a normal insulin response, then they are cured.

      Be careful concentrating too much on the weight loss. I understand vanity is a great motivator. But the closer you get to an ideal weight, the more you need to analyze what that target weight is.
      You could already be at your ideal body weight. Don't take health advice from a fashion designer. In my opinion dieting is the leading cause of obesity. Feeling better, stronger, and faster than you ever have in your life may be enough.

    I totally agree the secret of success in weight loss is hunger control after losing 50 lb and keeping it off for 2 years. I also agree that after 2 or 3 days on low carb the hunger drastically decreased. Getting through those first few days is the only hard part and I believe it can be decreased by starting higher protein and good fat intake for a few days before cutting the carbs.

      -try some form of time restricted eating: start with a 14-10, which means simply delay breakfast and anticipate dinner, no snacking after dinner.

    Doc, you didn't hear what she said. I think she was suggesting that doctors obsess too much over cholesterol and weight. Your weight has nothing to do with your health. There's no reason for a doctor to ever mention your weight. He's not qualified to do anything about it anyway. Even gastric bypass is only temporary.
    Even though we classify obesity as a disease, technically, it is not. A disease, by definition, must have symptoms. And obesity has none. I understand that to most people, their weight is more important than their health. But there is no reason for health insurance to cover a purely cosmetic intervention that, at the end of the day, doesn't even work. And is, in fact, the primary cause of the excess weight in the first place. There are a lot of people who would have never gained weight if they were never told to lose it.

      My wife was completely healthy before going on a liquid diet sponsored by her doctor. She did lose weight but became diabetic afterward. Her weight dropped to 175 in the first six months. But then spent another six months trying to lose another fifty pounds.
      When she finally gave up on the diet and joined a gym, we found out that she had already been at her ideal weight for the last six months. Her doctor should have been able to see that shooting for 125 based on her BMI was ridiculous. Based on muscle mass, her ideal weight was actually closer to 180.
      It upsets me so much that so many people have no idea what a risk factor is. I'm sure there are reasons to calculate risk factors. But there is no reason for a doctor to ever quote risk factors to a patient. There are tests for all of the ailments you listed. One's weight is not one of them.
      The leading cause of obesity is dieting. Doctors need to stop telling healthy patients they're fat. Especially if their only solution is eat less, move more, low-fat plant-based propaganda.
      An epidemiologist can calculate a risk factor for your shoe size. Does that justify your doctor recommending foot size adjustment surgery? A risk factor is a mathematical calculation that does not involve any experimentation or physiological knowledge.
      To collect the data required to do a population risk factor requires money. Making an agenda of possible profit the only essential hypothesis. At no point is evidence or actual biological research required.
      Skinny happens to be in right now. It's a fashion statement. Most, if not all, women want to lose ten to fifteen pounds no matter how skinny they are already. Doctors and supposedly well-meaning friends and family do not need to be part of the problem.
