How many of you have consulted a doctor, and asked for dieting advice before starting on your weight loss journey?
I feel as though alot of misunderstandings between members asking for advice on the website could be fixed with a simple, "I have consulted with my doctor, and I am sticking to the plan that we outlined for me."
Do any of you believe that it is necessary to see a doctor before you start some sort of weightloss plan? As I understand it, everyone's body is different... having your metabolism tested, and knowing whether or not you have certain dieting restrictions you should follow is probably very beneficial.
I know that doctors don't know everything, and sometimes they can make mistakes, but, it just makes more sense to me that one would try and be safe and get proper advice from someone who knows what they're talking about.
Just curious, I guess.
