No red dye, sugar free, low carb diet ideas for 6 y.o? My son whom is six is diagnosed with a mood disorder. His psychiatrist advised me to put him on a low-carb sugar-free diet. (He has been gaining alot of weight on his meds, and this diet is also may help with his behavior.) Here are my questions: How low carb should we go-what should we limit his carbs to? Doesn't he need some to be healthy and what would you say the recommended amount should be? Would sugar substitutes be alright a little bit... like sugar free syrup in his milk to replace the Nesquick that he usually has in it. I have seen sugar free ones in the store made with Splenda. Would these be alright? The other thing I know he will have a hard time with is he likes to eat fruit snacks... what could I replace them with? Does sugar free include fruit? I know fruit has natural sugars in it. Do they count as the same thing?

Low Carbs/Sugar Diet Questions? New medical problem resulted in the doctor requiring me to eat a low carb/sugar diet. So, I looked up "low carb diet" and read some things, but want to confirm these statements with some people... a) <50grams of Carbohydrates max? b) This type of diet encourages fat? c) Don't fat-filled food (like SPAM) usually come with high cholesterol? Which is bad...? d) Fiber; lots of fiber? e) Protein; lots of protein? f) Take Omega-3 pills? g) No sodas; water! h) All meat allowed (i.e. steak), but do not eat potatoes, bread, etc. (usual sides) i) No milk/dairy! j) No cheese k) No white-bread/rice l) No fruits That all? That doesn't sound so bad... eggs for breakfast, SPAM (or some other meat) for lunch, steak for dinner (hah; imagine steak every night :/). For snacks in between, yogurt and some vegetables. Any tips? "If you doctor is just requiring you to eat a low carb diet and leaving it there, then change your doctor to someone who can give you the usable advice and guidance you need on the subject." The doctor was a endocrinologist, who doesn't have many experience with my particular medical problem. He forwarded me to a gastroenterologist who would advise me on all this, but my appt with him is 3 weeks from now :/. "What kind of medical condition do you have? Thyroid problem? Diabetes?" I was diagnosed with hypothyroidism ~3 years ago and have been on medication until ~4 months ago when blood results showed increased liver functions. Sonograms and more tests showed that the physical liver is fine, and they thought it was the thyroid drug. I went off the thyroid medication for ~2 months, and my thyroid showed normal activities; so did my liver. Looks like I was cured! ~2 months after (now), another blood test done by my endocrinologist showed regular thyroid levels (yay), but increased liver functions again. He ordered a sonogram, which showed fatty liver, to which he suggest going on a low carb/sugar diet, and to stop drinking (I drink occasionally). Because he doesn't have much experience in the liver, he gave me basic tips, and referred me to a gastroenterologist, whom I will be meeting in ~3 weeks. And finally, I DON'T WANT TO LOSE WEIGHT OR ANYTHING LIKE THAT. I am happy with my weight!

Low carb diet and Cycling? I am an avid cyclist and I'm 7 pounds away from my perfect ideal weight. My boss suggested this diet which doesn't eliminate carbs..but drastically reduces them. This diet worked wonders for him and the three days I've been on it I can tell it'll do the trick! For my morning 25 mile rides I've been eating a bowl of high protein/fiber no sugar added cereal. It is not on the diet of course but I feel I need it and once I get home I follow the diet. This Saturday will be my first long distance ride on this diet. I'm spending 4-5 hours riding and I know some bowl of ceral isn't cutting it. I typically bring with me some gatorade (pure sugar goodness) and granola bars or some other quick eating carb/sugar source. Biking well comes before weight loss so if I gotta screw the diet then screw the diet. But I'd like to know if anyone out there has experience with low carb diets and bicycling. Any advice on what I should eat would be appreciated. Oh yeah...that low carb crap lasted for about 7 hours. I don't know what I was thinking! This weekend I'm eating up and riding hard! Thanks!
