Low Carb diets work well for many people when other types of low fat diets have not worked. Some think that low carb is unhealthy, but those that do these plans the right way often end up shedding pounds, feeling great, and coming away from a physical with a doctor with great results.

If you want to try low carb, you may be jazzed that you can have meat and even fats, but you may also worry about having to give up things like pasta. Fear not, for there are now low carb pasta options out there that will work great in a low carb eating plan.

Eating plans like Atkins do not let you have any type of grain until you are far though the losing weight portion of the program. However, that does not mean that you will never have breads and pastas again. It just means that you have to wait for them and then decide how your body is reacting to them when you add them back to your diet.

When you get to the latter phase of ongoing weight loss on Atkins, you can indeed try some whole grains, which would include low carb pasta made with whole grains. Not everyone likes these, but they are a healthy alternative most learn to love after having them for a while.

Low carb pasta of this type is a bit hard to get use to. If you are use to eating regular pasta and then you suddenly switch to low carb, you are not going to like the change. The same can be said for going from white bread to whole grain bread. Because you go for a few months (at least) on Atkins before you can eat breads and pastas again, adding a whole grain version is going to be more welcome. You are not going to have such a hard time adjusting to them, and you may end up preferring them, which is the whole point.

You can also find a low carb pasta called Dreamfield. Some people do not have any luck finding this in some stores, but you can if you look around. I could not find any in Wal-Mart or Target grocery at one point, but I did find it in my local grocery store. It is becoming more popular because more and more people are eating it and loving how it tastes.

Dreamfield makes quite a few different pastas and they taste exactly like white pasta, but there are only five carbs a serving as compared to 30 or more per serving in other pastas. If you miss white pasta and can not get use to the whole grain, this is the perfect alternative for you.

Just remember not to overdo it with the low carb pasta while on your eating plan. Some people find that it does not bother them, and some do not handle them well as it stalls out their diet or even makes them put more weight back on. See how you do with them a few times a week before you decide if they are something you can keep in your diet or not. Most people are fine as long as they don't eat too much and have it occasionally rather than everyday. That is all that you need in most eating plans anyway.

Low Carb Pasta Q&A

Go to your local Asian grocery store & buy shirataki noodles. Health food stores (Whole Foods & Trader Jacks, etc) probably have them also - look in the refrigerated section for the tofu/shirataki.

I like the tofu/shirataki noodles but they are too expensive for me to buy & I don't have a local source. I like the plain shirataki noodles & they are at least half the price. I've heard people finding them in some Asian markets for a dollar a bag even. I order on line & pay $2.80# That website has 10 - 7oz pkgs for $33 with shipping - that is $7.53# - I haven't found the tofu/shirataki cheaper anywhere else though.

They are NOT like pasta, they are rubbery & absorb the flavors of what you cook them in. You have to rinse them well & parboil to get the fishy smell off them but I've never noticed it after rinsing. The tofu/shirataki are not as rubbery, but still not the same as pasta. They are better in stir fry type Asian dishes.

This fellow fries up "dumplings" with just Glucomannan (Konjac) powder, water & a fry pan.

I tried to make my own shirataki (konnyaku) once following the recipe with pickling lime & Glucomannan powder & just had a pot of goo & threw it all out. I never thought to fry it up though.

Be careful of using too much glucomannan/konjac powder too quick - it can really clean out your system. Start out slowly & let your system get used to it. I used it to make instant low carb puddings before I discovered chia seeds. You just sprinkle it in & wisk it onto whatever liquid you want to make a pudding out of. It's also great as a low carb thickener in soups, sauces & stews but I usually just add ground flax seeds or chia seeds for body instead.

Where in Victoria, Australia can I buy Dreamfields Pasta?

I've read alot about how great this low carb pasta is, but can I buy it in Victoria, Australia and if I can, where? I have been using E'Sapore pasta, which has half the carbs of regular pasta, but Safeway Australia wide have decided to stop stocking it and I can't get it anywhere else. Any info would be much appreciated.

Well, statistics reveal that the average American’s meal is made up of 50 percent carbohydrates. Gauging by the wide spread of fast food restaurants and the fat content in foods sold therein, it is anyone’s guess that the average American also consumes a substantial amount of fats. While the carbohydrates and fat content does not mean anything alone, the alarming statistics by dieticians indicates that their inclusion in diets could be doing people more harm than good.

According to the dieticians and other health experts, obesity is spreading at a rate that could pose a health disaster to the country in coming years. While other lifestyle factors contribute to the obesity menace, food is one of the major contributing factors.

More specifically, the high fat and carbohydrate content in contemporary recipes means that the modern American consumes more calories than he or she burns. The extra calories are stored in the body as extra fats, eventually causing obesity. Considering the sedentary lifestyles that most people lead, dieticians believe that low carb low fat recipes could hold the solution to the obesity problem.

The low carb low fat recipes are characterized by a higher intake of proteins and vitamins, while restricting carbohydrates and fats to a bare minimum. Notably, there is a difference between low carb low fat diets and low carb diets. The latter replaces digestible carbohydrates with proteins, foods rich in vitamins and fats.

The former however insists that high fat content should be avoided in most meals. Since it is not wise to completely wipe fats from diets, most low carb low fat recipes contain provisions for fats, specifically to provide up to 30 percent calories in any meal.

To most dieticians, the secret for fat inclusion in meals lies with differentiating between the good and bad fats. Bad fats are identified as trans fats, which raise bad cholesterol in the body hence increasing risks of people developing coronary heart disease.

Examples of diets made from low carbohydrates low fat recipes include the abs diet, the ‘fat loss for idiots’ diet and the ‘Karl Lagerfeld diet’ among others. To ensure that cooked food contains only the good fats, health experts recommend against the use of margarine, regular shortening, oil-based dressings, and mayonnaise. In their place, kitchens should be stocked up with the likes of safflower oil, olive oil, non-stick cooking oil and canola oil among other healthy oils.

Low Fat Recipes Q&A

I love stirfry. Try this

Stirfry your fave veg in low fat spray. I use mushrooms, onions, peppers and carrot. Add 100g of chicken tonite sweet and sour sauce. Add 60g of sweet corn (2 tablespoons) and some beansprouts if you like them. Serve over a plate of lettuce and cherry tomatoes. Very filling and low in fat.

To vary it try using some asda stirfry sauces ie teriyaki or chowmein flavour, or instead of lettuce and tomato serve with a baked potato. Delicious! Enjoy

(If you are using store bought sauces check the fat content!)

What are some Low-fat cakes and biscuits etc, that I can buy in most UK supermarkets?

Without artificial junk etc.

Weightwatchers are low in calories and fat, look online! =]

One thing that people hate about Diet Plans is that many do not allow them to eat out. They could eat anywhere they want, but there are so many hidden sugars and calories in restaurant dishes that those that are so dedicated to their diet that they don't dare eat something they did not make on their own.

There is something to this, as restaurants dishes pile on the calories and have as much as twice as many calories as most customers estimate. If you are on a Low Carb plan, you can eat out. You just need to know more about low carb eating out so you can choose the right foods.

One thing that you can have when low carb eating out is Buffalo wings. The basic sauce for these is butter and hot sauce, both of which should have no carbs. Chicken is okay on a low carb plan, so mixing them is a great idea. You can have them with celery and bleu cheese as well.

You can also order a salad to go with it and you have a great low carb meal that you can get almost anywhere. Just remember to stay away from any wing sauce like BBQ that may have sugar added. Stick with sauces that you know have no sugar, and ask to make sure.

You can also have a steak or a chicken breast when you go for low carb eating out. As with the wing sauce, make sure there are no sugars added to the meats. Some marinate them or inject them with sugar for some odd reason, which means you are getting more carbs in there than you want. Most restaurants have meat that you can have, and most serve vegetables like green beans, broccoli, and a chef salad (without croutons) that you can have too. Skip the ribs though, as they have sugar on them in both the rub and the sauce used on them.

Remember that you really can't have any typical gravies while you are out. These always have either flour or corn starch, which are both not good for a low carb plan. If you are low carb eating out and thinking of a dish that has a sauce of some type, ask the waiter or waitress to find out what is in the sauce. Some are made with cream or with wine, which could be okay for you depending on your chosen low carb plan. Think of eating out while low carbing as always asking questions when trying a dish for the first time.

You may assume that some places are completely out of the question when low carb eating out, but that is not necessarily true. The Olive Garden is mostly about pastas, but you can actually find some low carb options there. Even if you think a place is out of the question, give them a try anyway, you may find out otherwise.

You can always leave if you simply can not find something you like. Then there are the obvious ones like Red Lobster and Outback Steakhouse that are always going to have something, just make sure they hold the rub on the meats and you should be okay.

Low Carb Eating Q&A

Sugar is natural and low carb.. I suggest you eat alot of it. Sugar increases energy, Energy is needed to burn calories.

Do you buy diet foods to stay healthy: Low fat, low carb, low calorie? Does your S/O eat healthy or do you...?

buy seperate products for them, because they don't care to eat healthy and/or don't like the taste of health foods?

Yep. I have to cook two separate meals at night most times also. It sucks... but, i don't like the "bad stuff" he eats. And he doesn't like the "good stuff" i eat. He doesn't like to workout, but i do... we are so opposite...

Low-carb diets have this habit of completely excluding staples like pasta, bread, rice, and sugar. If it's difficult for people to stick to diets that restrict them to low-carb foods, it's because that such a diet almost always excludes pretty much everything that they know how to eat to stay alive. How do you stay on a diet of low-carb foods when you are never told what it is that you actually can eat. The truth is, that a low-carb dietdoes not have to be so difficult to follow. You don't even need ketosis to begin to reap the benefits of a Low Carb diet.

Why is it that these diets try to keep you down to starvation levels of carbohydrate intake? The principle all of these diets work on is that carbohydrates push your internal buttons to get your pancreas to begin production of insulin. And that is a hormone that increases body's abilities in fat storage.

Restrict everything you eat to low-carb foods and they believe that you will no longer produce much insulin and you won't have it packing fat into your abdomen either. And when there is less insulin in your blood, you'll also begin to start burning your body fat for energy. It is supposed to work both ways.

The process by which the body burns its fat instead of its carbohydrates is something they call ketosis. There are some low-carb diets that actually aim to make the body perform its ketosis magic as early on as possible. They will almost completely cut off your allowance of carbohydrates to try to jumpstart the ketosis process. How low does the carbohydrate content in your food help you get the process started?

Usually, anything lower than 50 g a day for a couple of days gets it going. Most low-carb diets that try to get you to take advantage of this function make you do this for the first couple of weeks in the belief that it will help you take the most advantage possible.

Unfortunately, science isn't on the side of the ketogenic low-carb diet. They actually tried this; in research tests published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition a few years ago. They took on a couple of dozen people who were overweight, put half of them on a diet that allowed them no carbohydrates, and put the other half on a normal, carbohydrates-filled diet. They found that each group did as well as the other. There was just no difference.

A much healthier and more sensible way of going about picking the cards out of your food would be to allow yourself about 50 g of carbohydrates at each meal. That will allow you to work great deal more variety into your meal. And your chances of sticking to your diet would be far greater.

Instead, you are going to have to learn about some low carb cooking. You will find, as you start this process, that you start to enjoy cooking more and you will also start to serve your family better meals. They may resist at first, but they too can enjoy your new, low carb creations as much as you do. Just learn a few tips first.

Vegetables are a big part of a good low carb eating plan. Most don't realize this unless they study up on the right ways to do these diets. Low carb cooking means learning to take foods that you may not have enjoyed in the past, or ever even tried, and to prepare them in a tasty way that you can learn to love rather quickly. You just have to know what to do. You probably already know how to make some meats, but you can learn new ways to prepare them. You can also learn new and interesting vegetable cooking techniques and how to use good fats needed on a good Low Carb Diet.

For veggies, low carb cooking means learning about steaming, and frying some vegetables, and then eating some raw. The raw thing is something that you already know how to do, but steaming is something new for many. You can get steam in the bag from a store, which is great as long as they are legal diet foods on your plan, or you can learn how to steam them in the microwave fresh from the garden or store, or how to steam them on the stove. This leaves them cooked, but still crisp and full of vitamins and minerals that you lose with boiling.

You can also learn to make veggies with stir fry or other frying methods. The best part about a low carb plan is that you can cook with oils that you probably could not have on any other type of diet plan. You can use safe oils that are good for the body like olive oil, canola, and other oils. Look for a list of recommended oils for a low carb diet. You can use herbs to perk up the flavor if you want, and you can come up with some veggies so good that everyone will love what you learn to make with low carb cooking and may even ask for seconds.

Remember that low carb cooking can have other fats as well, which includes mayonnaise and butter. These can add taste as well as a good base for fry, bake, or do anything else you need with veggies. You can also use these with other safe foods to shake up what you eat each day. One of the biggest reasons that people fall off of any diet is boredom and hunger. You won't have hunger on a good low carb plan, but you could get bored with the same foods all the time. Mix it up so that you stay on for the benefits to your health and your waistline too.

Losing weight is hard for most people. Bad eating habits can start when we are very young. Your parents never meant to teach you habits that can destroy your health, and the foods they served you were often what they could afford, what they loved, or simply foods that were not known to be quite as bad for your body as is now known.

Low calorie desserts come in many different forms. Some use things like sugar substitutes so that you can still have something sweet without eating all that sugar that is so bad for your dieting endeavor. Some desserts use real sugar, just much less of it. Others are smaller portions that you can add to your plan, and some use different ways to naturally make low calorie desserts without using the ingredients that are hardest on your system. You may learn a whole new way of satisfying your sweet tooth without all of the empty calories.

If you want to eat a bit more of your low calorie desserts, you have to find the ones that are 'no sugar added' or that use artificial sweeteners. The no sugar added desserts are naturally sweet without adding more sugar to the recipe to make it even sweeter. Some use artificial sweeteners and some do not. There are some that just use something like Splenda to sweeten them from the beginning. These foods should allow you a bit of a bigger portion, but remember that it is not a license to eat all that you want. These still have calories. Count the calories and watch portion sizes when adding them up.

Some low calorie desserts come in tiny portions. You may find small snack packs in the stores that have a certain amount of calories per package. Some have a hundred calories and some have a bit more. If you open just one of these and if that is all that you eat, you found something sweet to stave off your craving and you know exactly how many calories you are putting into your diet. Don't make these a mainstay in your diet, but keep them on hand when your sweet tooth is making you crazy.

Lastly, you can find some great low calorie desserts by coming up with new ways to make something sweet with far less sugar. Think about sugar free Jello with just a hint of whipped cream. You can make desserts with more fruits and less sugars that will come out to be sweeter than you think. You can also try alternatives to flour and some oils, as they add calories to any meal or dessert. There are plenty of great cookbooks with low cal ideas if you are not good at coming up with them on your own. Don't use dessert as an excuse to fall of the wagon. Your healthier life awaits.

As with any chronic condition, arthritis requires that you pay special attention to following a healthful diet for arthritis. Doing so can help you attain a better quality of life, while reducing pain and avoiding some of the complications of brittle, weak bones and joints. Some of the components of such a healthy diet for arthritis apply to everyone, even those not suffering from arthritis, while there are some dietary practices that are of particular help to arthritis patients. Let’s take a look at how you can help yourself to feel better and enjoy every day to the fullest.

One of the most common problems for arthritis patients is being overweight. Arthritis is a painful condition, one that does not make you want to go out and exercise. The catch-22 here is that if you are overweight and have arthritis, the extra weight puts undue stress on the weight-bearing joints, particularly in the hip and knee joints. An important consideration in a healthy diet for arthritis is making an effort to reduce your sugar, fat, sodium and cholesterol intake. This not only helps you reduce weight, but also benefits you if you have HBP and/or heart disease – which, incidentally, is common among arthritis patients.

As a general rule of thumb, when you plan your menus, include a variety of foods, paying particular attention to high-fiber foods – in other words, eat plenty of produce and whole grain breads and cereals. Instead of whole milk, cheese or yogurt, choose the low-fat versions of these foods. Fish, poultry and lean meats are your best choices. Beans and other legumes are especially high in fiber. Among your choices in fruits, make berries prominent in your selections. Almost all berries are anti-inflammatory, a definite plus in a good diet for arthritis. Cherries are another good choice in fruits and are also anti-inflammatory.

Serve smaller portions than you’re used to – cutting down on portions of gravy, desserts and the like is not only better for you, but it helps you lose weight as well. If you enjoy alcoholic beverages, do so in moderation.

Arthritis patients sometimes tend to avoid preparing certain foods, such as fruits and veggies, due to painful joints in the hands. Making use of some of the new, small kitchen appliances can take some of the work – and pain – out of the equation.

Work with your physician and/or a nutritionist in developing your individual diet for arthritis, as your physician will take into account any other health conditions that may impact your dietary choices. In addition, your doctor can advise you on whether you need supplements of certain nutrients lost through certain prescribed medications you may be taking.

As for exercise, again, your own doctor is your best ally in choosing the type of exercise that will most benefit you. Walking on a daily basis is often helpful. Swimming is another good choice, in that this activity puts little stress on your joints.
In many ways, a healthful diet for arthritis is common sense. However, there are always those few caveats particular to each individual. Work with your doctor and you’ll enjoy life and reduced pain that much more!

Resistant starch is where all the action is in healthy carbs. There have been research studies by the dozen that have shown how resistant starch not only helps you eat less than you would otherwise, it helps you feel stronger, it helps you burn more calories, and it helps you feel better. How could carbs do all of this? Is this for real? Let's get into this in more detail to find out. Before long, you'll be finding ways to work all the great carbs you can find into your diet - so that you can get that slim chiseled look you have always craved for yourself.

Here is one scientific angle for you - a study has just found that when you check random people for the kind of diets they prefer, it just so happens that obese people are the ones who have the least carbds in their diet; and the slimmest are the ones who eat the most carbs. Just statistically speaking, when carbs make up two-thirds of your daily caloric intake or about 12 ounces, your chances of being slim go up a great deal. If you always loved stuffed baked potatoes but have been afraid to go near them for the reason that you believed they were fastening, you don't have to anymore. It happens to be a really slimming food. Your typical low-carb diet asks you to make sure that you don't ever allow more than one-third of your daily caloric intake to come from carbs. That would be no more than 30 g a day; and that would be totally inadequate.

So how exactly does a carb diet go about helping you lose weight? To begin with, carbs are really filling. Even more so than fatty- or protein-filled foods. Your digestive system takes a lot longer processing carbs than any other kind of food; for as long as it takes your body to digest it, you're simply not going to feel hungry again. People who choose a carb-rich diet on average, just naturally end up consuming 10% less than people who don't.

There is just something really healthy about resistant starch foods. People who are on a low-carb diet, when they move to a carb-rich one with lots of high fiber foods, find that their cravings for a rich foods just disappear. Resistant starch foods are just satisfying; they make people feel less deprived. With lots of high-fiber carbs in your diet, you can control your blood sugar, keep your risk of diabetes down, burn fat more quickly around the abdomen, and stay on the diet for longer because you more likely to feel satisfied with your food.

Carb Diet Q&A

20 grams or less. And forget about milk ... too much sugar there. One thing though with a low carb diet is that you can subtract grams of fiber from the total grams of carbs since the body can't metabolize the fiber very well and has to utilize energy in order to do so. So fiberous veggies like broccoli or cauliflower are great on low carb diets.

Back To School Means Back To Health

It happens to the best of us. The kids get out of school and our exercise routines and healthy eating habits get thrown to the waste side. Evening trips to the ice cream shop, hours of sitting in a beach chair, long car rides where only fast food is available: all of these factors may have added a few extra pounds to you and your kids over the course of the summer. Now with the start of the school season how can you get yourself and your kids back on a good eating and exercise routine? The following 4 steps will help you lose those unwanted summer pounds and develop a good routine for the whole school year.

Pack your lunch. Not just your child’s lunch, but your lunch as well. Make meal preparation an activity that you do along with your kids. Include them in the process from start to finish. First start by making a grocery list of all the foods you will need for breakfast, lunch and dinner for the week. Remember that kids are more likely to eat healthy foods if they have chosen them themselves. Next, food shop together. And last, make lunches at the same time that you make dinner in the evening. Not only will your children enjoy the foods that they have prepared themselves but they will also learn the value of taking time to prepare healthy foods. Yes, we are all limited by time these days. But children who learn that healthy food takes time to prepare become teenagers and adults that will take the time to choose and prepare healthy foods. Children who eat on the run usually turn into teenagers who eat fast foods on the run who then turn into adults who eat fast food. This starts them on a downward spiral that will only lead to obesity and heart disease.

Schedule your exercise. Schedule your exercise routine around your child’s school schedule or activity schedule. For example, wear your gym clothes to drop your kids off at school and go directly to the gym. Not only will you be setting a great example for your children, you will be less likely to skip your workout if you are dressed and ready to go. You can also schedule your exercise time around your child’s sports or activity schedule. If you know your child has dance on certain days, at certain times, schedule your exercise during that time as well. If you prioritize your own exercise time this way, you will be showing your child how valuable exercise is and how it is an integral part of your day. Children who see you value and prioritize exercise time become adults who value and prioritize exercise time.

Make sure your back pack is packed the night before. Again, this does not only go for your child but it goes for you as well. What do you need to have set up at night to make the next morning run smoothly and free of chaos? When I was a little girl my mom would help us each night set up our clothes and backpacks the night before. Every night I would have to think about the next day’s activities and plan accordingly. Did I have dancing school after school? Was it gym day? Was I going to a friend’s for a play date? Now, as an adult, the questions are a bit different but still require planning and packing the night before. Am I going to the gym first thing in the morning? Do I need to pack my clothes for an after work workout? Am I meeting a friend for a run? Do I have some healthy snacks with me? This simple step each night still helps me, to this day, make each morning run smoothly.

Get a tutor or outside help. If your child was doing poorly in math, you would not just let him throw in the towel and drop math class. Same goes for your workouts and eating regimen. If you find that you’re struggling with your current plan, find yourself some outside support just as you would find your child a tutor or supplementary tutoring class. Join an exercise class at the gym, hire a trainer for a few sessions, consult with a nutritionist, find an exercise/nutrition support group. When one avenue doesn’t work, try a new strategy. You would never let your child just drop out of school if one method of learning wasn’t working. Same goes for your exercise and nutrition plan. No one plan works for everyone, so explore all your options and choose the best plan for you.

Remember that health should always be your highest priority. Teaching your child that health is just as important to their future as school will get them started on a life long path to healthy living.

Lean Body Secrets: What you can learn from bodybuilders about weight loss

Ever wonder what bodybuilders eat? How they stay so lean and ripped while you slave at the gym for hours and struggle to lose the last 10 pounds? What's the secret behind beautiful bodies you see in magazines?

"There is no secret! There is no magic!" exclaims Jason Kozma, Beverly Hills personal trainer who sculpted the bodies of celebrities, athletes and fellow-bodybuilders.  "It's all about hard work in the gym and discipline when it comes to food."

But what does it mean?  Another fad diet? Fast weight loss diet? No carbs?  Calorie restriction?  Days at the gym lifting heavy weights? You would be surprised that the key to successful bodybuilders' diet is eating a lot of food.  "Most people, especially women, stop eating when they want to lose weight," says Kozma.  "That's a big mistake! Because the body starts storing anything they do eat and convert it into fat." 

Kozma says his program doesn't offer "quick" fixes.  "It requires a lifestyle change, exercise, good nutrition and patience," he says. "You'll lose nothing but pure fat and keep all your muscle!"

Kozma offers 10 tips to jump-start the new YOU.

• 1. Eat every 3 hours to speed up your metabolism. This will allow your body to maintain lower body fat and higher muscle tissue.
• 2. Don't skip breakfast and eat within 30 minutes of waking up. Incorporate oatmeal and egg whites into your breakfast meal and say ‘good-bye' to high-sugar cereals and waffles, breads, butter and bacon.
• 3. Grill, broil and steam your meat instead of frying and sautéing. Choose the leanest cuts and enjoy dozens of delicious ways to make your meals without using oils and butter.
• 4. Eat fresh and steamed veggies with every meal. They not only help with fiber and better digestion, but will also contribute to clear skin and healthy hair.
• 5. Pick foods like look great. Remember that lean protein feeds lean muscle, fat feeds fat; bread makes you puffy, tofu makes you squishy, mayonnaise looks exactly like it does in the jar underneath your skin.
• 6. Don't skip on carbs. Carbs give you bursts of energy, so choose them carefully. Opt for whole grains, traditional rice (not quick recipes), pastas and potatoes.
• 7. Say NO to alcohol. It's not good for you anyway, so why drink. Besides, wine, champagne, beers and hard liquor are loaded with sugar that converts into fat.

•8.      For late night sugar cravings, get a sugar-free popsicle or Jell-O to satisfy your desire.

•9.      Drink 100 oz of water daily. Drink between meals and especially during your workouts

•10.  Don't eat within 3 hours of going to sleep.

Kozma stresses that everyone needs an individual plan to fat loss.  He designs custom meal programs based on your body composition and monitors your success.
