Dr. told me to drop down to 750 calories

I have a few conditions I'm expert in, either from having them, or from working in research related to it. I don't confuse my experience with a medical education, but it does give me enough knowledge to know when the doctor made a mistake. Because they do make mistakes - just like people.

in ur expertise what would happen to a woman who is at around 30% body fat ate 750kcal for 30 days but ingested enough miconutrients, min 30 grams fats and min 40 grams protein?

I'd say it's time to drop the doctor! Get a new one!

In my case, if i had listened to this doctor, i would have endangered my unborn baby.

Doctors go to school, yes. They usually are knowledgable...but not in every area. Use your OWN common sense.

Does she also own the funeral service in town? cause it sounds to me she is trying to kill you.

I never claimed expertise in nutrition, however I also wouldn't make the mistake of assuming that some programmer with a website came up with the 1200 kcal theory - I heard that a long time before Al Gore invented the internet (;-P), from pretty much oh, everybody reputable I ever consulted in the nutrition industry.

I DO however, know a stitch or two about PCOS, though that's not my own diagnosis. I dealt with endometriosis, and had cystic ovaries, but never a formal PCOS diagnosis. I did, however, due to my endo, struggle with similar symptoms of difficulty with blood sugar management, cyclical pain, fertility issues - which I have, as a result, researched considerably, and learned how to deal with. THAT's the expertise I offer, and yes, within that, I do think I know more than an awful lot of doctors. I've had doctors tell me that I "couldn't have endometriosis, too young" (research said it can start in the teen years, and I was in my late 20s, my expert surgeon agrees I likely had it for a very, very long time). I've had doctors tell me the only treatment was birth control pills, that it couldn't possibly impact my sugars, that the pain couldn't possibly be in my legs, that naprosyn would for sure work, that my symptoms would disappear forever once I had a child, and so forth - advice that ran counter to my experience. Even my surgeon didn't expect me to report relief of blood sugar symptoms - he's a nationally recognized expert in the condition. And yet, it worked for that, too.

In short, I am an expert in my body. I make myself an expert in any health problem that impacts me. I make myself an expert in what's working for my metabolism, because I know the difference between statistics and individuals - attempting any one-size-fits-all solution fails in some cases. I know enough from my career to understand that it's completely hopeless for any physician to know everything, so I make it my business to learn about my own health concerns so that I don't follow bad advice. That was the main point I was offering - that her doctor seems excessively focused on a possible diagnosis and her own opinion, and may not be capable of offering sound advice to a patient she won't spend time to understand better.
