    Er... A steak and eggs? And water.

    I assume this doc was not a cardiologist.

    I can not seriously believe that any doctor would recommend losing a pound a day. That is an eating nothing while exercising your butt off kind of loss. Not healthy nor really possible. Did you mishear what was said that the doctor made a responsible suggestion of a pound a week?

    a lb a day? not safe or doable...get yourself a new doctor

    This. Totally. Even my cancer patients don't lose a pound a day.

    go see a different doctor. it is not healthy for ANYONE to lose a pound a DAY

    he probably meant a pound a WEEK, which is far more realistic.

    Wow - 1 pound a day? Sounds like your Doctor doesn't have a clue.............

    Weight loss is about taking in fewer calories than your body expends. Eat fewer carbs if you like to eat that way OR eat fewer carbs if you have a medical condition. But take either way just take in fewer calories.

    I think you misunderstood your doctor.

    No carb recipes: meat/seafood cooked without added sugar or sauce

    I have a feeling a lot of people on these boards post "my doctor said" when it's really their idea all along. :/

    I would be inclined to agree. While their are certianly some dumb doctors out there, even dumb doctors are typically smart enough to avoid a malpractice lawsuit waiting to happen.

    I think the only way you're losing a pound a day is by cutting off a pound everyday......and that's just painful. You sure the doc didn't mean a pound a week? If he really did say a pound a day then I don't think english is his first language.

    How much weight do you have to lose? Why were you not given a diet to follow if you medically need fast weight loss?
    Get a new doctor if he really told you to lose 1 lb a day. That is not a healthy or realistic goal. Even 2 lbs a week would be an aggressive weight loss goal unless you are needing to lose 100+ lbs. If you have 50 lbs or less to lose 1 lb a week makes more sense.
    You don't have to eliminate carbs to lose weight. Weight loss is from a calorie deficit. A diet will not be effective for weight loss unless you have a calorie deficit. You can eat a sustainable diet of all types of foods and consume fewer calories.

    No carb foods- oil, butter, meat, eggs
    That is not something most people could stick to.
    Low carb diets are a preference for some people. A low carb diet does not eliminate all carbs. People are still eating things like dairy, vegetables, meats. https://kalynskitchen.com has a good selection of recipes.
