Renee, You were given good advise by the dietician. Here's some more A good recipe book for low fat, low sugar, low protein is available from the Pritikin Longevity Institute. They were the pioneers in low fat diet recommendations before the medical profession accepted the theory. They also say that the American diet is too high in protein and should be low in salt and low in sugar. They have been proven to be a very healthy diet for Heart Conditions, Diabetes, and Weight loss. Professional athletes. in such demanding activities as the Triathalon have used their diet with success. They have an 800 number you can get and call them. I believe I am alive today after several major heart attacks because of the Pritikin program. I highly recomend it.
