Ah...a naturopathic or functional doctor is a great idea as there are "issues" that I have to deal with.
Is there a website where you can find accredited (is that the right word?) naturopathic/functional doctors in your area? Quote:

I was a part of a weight loss study which involved meeting with a RD regularly. My RD did not believe in the one ultimate diet. She worked within your tastes and body's preferences. I think that is key. I would say the most helpful thing she did is help me set biweekly SMART goals. SMART stands for
It sounds like you have the basic understanding how weight loss works. So did I. However, I couldn't make it work. This approach really helped me. It has helped me other parts of my life: focusing on behavior patterns rather than the end result I want. |

i discovered that i was snacking after dinner as a habit and not because i was hungry. i observed my legs walking into the kitchen, then i'd open the frig or look in the cupboard for snacks. and they weren't healthy foods! so instead, after dinner, i'd plan to do something, like laundry or a chore, or even going to VF and read stuff. fortunately, i do not eat at the computer - i am likely to get crumbs or liquid on the keyboard, and i don't want that, so i know that surfing the internet will not involve eating. i also do not eat in the bedroom. your habits could be different than mine. in my case, if i really want something in my mouth, i just drink water or herb tea. my snacking after dinner: - was mindless - occurred in the kitchen - was out of habit - was replaceable with other non-food activities
