I am diagnosed "borderline diabetic" by my doctor. ....am probably even more across the "border" now since I have gained additional weight since diagnosed with borderline diabetes a while ago....and high blood pressure as well..due to being probably 95 lbs. overweight.
I feel weak when I try to diet...low fat...low carbs normal protein......grumpy...and hateful.
When I try to go on Atkins...that was HORRIBLE for causing water retention...more than my usual...from all the sodium involved in those protein overloads.......and bad for high blood pressure.It is imperative that I get on a eating style that will help me lose gradually, healthily, and PERMANENTLY......But, what is a good diet plan for my "almost" -(if not "for sure") diabetes? I'm miserable...No energy....hurting legs and feet...I'm a hairstylist of 33 years old that stands on my feet all day...they swell due to that, being overweight, and hurt from the water in my ankles....much pain.....I feel 80 years old.....HELP...????

What is a good weight loss diet for vegetarians?

My husband and I are both vegetarians (well I eat seafood, but he does not). We both need to lose at least 40 pounds. What is a good diet program that would work with what we eat. I know a lot of people that lost weight with Atkins & South Beach, but those diets don't really fit in to a vegetarian lifestyle. I am not looking for a quick fix, but something that we will be able to stick with for awhile. I know that part of our problem is that we eat a lot of carbs. We practically live on pasta. Its hard because we work different schedules so neither one of us really cooks a meal, but rather grabs something to eat. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Okay, I understand exercise. Thats a given. That isn't what I was asking. What other meals are good for vegetarians that don't include so many carbs?

I've tried the quick weight loss program and lost 40 lbs (gained 10 lbs back). I've also tried fatloss4idiots, atkins, and scarsdale and my weight stays about the same. I try to exercise at least 30 minutes a day, a few days a week, but it's not working. My daily calorie intake is about 1,000, more or less and is very balanced.
