A follow up to my previous comment: The only exception I cam think of is spinach. It is wilted before freezing

Frozen vegetables are not cooked they are just flash frozen so to roast the just thaw them out and roast them according to your recipe.

You are correct I can't eat like this forever. I do not know how long I will eat like this. It could change at my next Doctor visit. I do have an eating plan for maintaining. After I lose the weight I plan on adding 200 calories a day to my intake. Check my weight in a week, if I am still losing weight I keep adding…

My point is, so many people on is forum think they are experst, without knowing all the details. I decided to leave them out

Where did you get this information? Google? I got mine from my Cardiologist and Nutritionist, Which is more reliable??

I am sorry you are wrong.I asked for comments not advice or validation.

[quote} If you are following dietition plan why come here and ask for advice! [/quote] I am NOT coming here for advice. I read all the post on this forum and many people think they are experts. I only did this ti inform people that everyone is different and that they can not necessarily follow their plan

I am not telling anyone else to eat a 1200 calorie diet. I can only speak of me. But I am tired of people talking on this forum like they are experts, when they are not.

I am not crabby. I am following a REGISTERED DIETITIANS diet if you don't understand that then you are one that is "crabby"

Please do not suppose to tell me what my Doctor or Nutritionist tell me. Are you a Doctor or a nutritionist?

I can not go to the gym. And I am not tired and cranky.

Fascinating; In the two hours after I started this thread around 50 comments and most of them nay Sayers saying that what I am doing is wrong, is not healthy, but as soon as I mention my Cardiologist and a Registered Dietitian all the negative comments stopped. Where are all the experts now? Stop depending on Google and…

I did consult a registered dietitian on referral from my Cardiologist. I do take supplemental vitamins. My calories are correct. They are calculated off my brands of bread, margarine and so forth.

This menu will give you enough dietary fat. I really watch my saturated fats.

This is just an example of a menu. The point is if most of my food intake consists of veggies and fruit while limiting my carbs, sugar and fat while eating lean proteins. How could this be unhealthy as many on this forum claim? no mood swings or lack of energy. Feeling better than I have in along time. I have walked with a…

I am talking about some one who doesn't work out and has a desk job.

I have always battled with my weight. I finally got it under control through 3 times a week at the gym, (cardio and weight training) and a reasonable eating habit. Then in 2010 I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and my Doctor told me I couldn't work out any more. Depression ensued and my wife not wanting to deny…

You can use almost any veggie you want. Just adjust the size of the veggie in your dish. If a veggie has a tendency to become mushy when cooked, ( broccoli, cauliflower, squash for example) cut them larger than veggies that keep their crispness ( onions, carrots, fresh green beans). On a side note if you are looking for…

True you have to want it. Motivation is always the key. You say you don't mind being fat but that is usually what someone tells themselves when they are tired of dieting. I had almost resolved myself that I was done dieting. I have lost a lot of weight over the past 35 years but I slowly and sometimes not so slowly put it…
