That isn't true at all. I went to the dietician with (A) the original meat-eaters diet the trainer gave me, (B) the vegan diet the trainer gave me, and (C) the diet plan I came up with and was willing to work with her, explaining that I was concerned about starchy carbs due to weight gain and brought a book that backed up my concern.

The thread was more along the lines of a frustration that we just don't know who to trust when it comes to nutrition. Doctors? Registered dieticians? Personal Trainer? Books on nutrition? Those haven't worked for me as I keep getting different messages. Like I said, I've been given enough meal plans over the years to wallpaper a room. And you are right, the personal trainer one didn't work for me.. the meat one didn't fit and there was no way that I could maintain eating the vegan diet. Maybe eating these ribs are not healthy (they may be processed, but at least all the ingredients are readable) and I am more than willing to change. Just that moving to a high carb diet like what I was on before scares me due to the weight gain and fat % from last time.

FYI - for those trying to do any calculations, I am 5 foot, 10 inches.
