Hi,
I don't know lots about weight loss, but when I was in the hospital a while back, the psychiatrist did talk to me about the effects of different medications on my weight, and the choice of meds was based partly on that.
I tend to walk alot. Some days, I'll walk well over ten miles. I guess that this is the one benefit of not being able to drive. Though I can take a bus to some of the places I walk to, I find that I get there faster by walking, rather than waiting for the bus. I also ride my bicycle at times, so I guess these are my ways of weight control.
My doctor likes the fact that I do so much walking, etc. because I have high blood pressure. My Therapist likes it because I can work on some of the things she wants me to work on while I'm walking.
Talk to your doctor or P-doc. They might have some ideas for you, and I don't think you would want to start a dramatic diet without talking to your doctor first anyway. I think the people on Dr. Phil's diet are seeing a doctor as part of the program anyway. It would make good sense for anyone.
Good luck,
Dee.
