Ladibug, first, please no caps. It's bad Internet etiquette and considered to be shouting.

Now, to your question: Go back on the plan you are comfortable with and don't tell the doctor. He clearly is one of the multitude of doctors who are unwilling to look beyond the bad science behind the low-fat propaganda. And I would find another doctor.

Personally, I think you should try "The Schwarzbein Principle" by Dr. Diane Schwarzbein (she's an endochrinologist). Her plan is very simple: Cut out most starches and sugars and toxins (i.e. alcohol, caffein, drugs, bad fats such as margarine, etc.).

I know you felt better and even though you were on a stall, at least you weren't gaining when you were low-carbing. It is healthier. There are lots of studies and science that prove it. Check out the Research/Media Watch forum for them.

Good luck low-carbing.
