Sometimes no matter how long you know someone, you think you are communicating and then you realize that you were not.

I have a patient I have treated for a very long time only today to find out that she what she meant by, " Is it OK I am eating a lot of cucumbers?" that that meant she was eating a bag of cucumbers per day, as in 30 cucumbers! PER DAY!

Also, she was not eating any starch with her meals. She was eating EITHER starch OR protein. But never together.

I have known this woman for a long time. She does this to keep thin! I know I know a lot of you are out there trying to gain weight. Life is never fair:).

So, I realized. I THINK I am communicating, but often I am not. And, I think this is true for all of us.

So, please please, if you have not read the skeleton of my diet, the general rules, please do so. it is really important. Every part of it!

There are many reasons behind its foundation-and staying thin by artificially manipulating your diet is not a good idea! Not to mention, if you eat anything in such excess, that wont lead to anything healthy no matter how healthy that food is!!
