But for other, healthy individuals this is not a concern.

Common sense.
ETA: I know zero about this diet. Can't and won't comment on this one specifically.

I have been on Dr. Gotts "No Sugar No Flour" Diet and it is really easy to follow. In 10 weeks, I have lost 25 pounds. It would probably be more if I would exercise.
Good Luck. Just try to pick the one that will work for you.

Toss the salt, if you must have any use some that hasn't been refined into a pure chemical.
I wish I could be that regimented... but.. how do you do that unless you never leave the house?
Well, I DO cheat now and then..I go on mobile drives with the Blood Bank and stop where each charge nurse wants to, which yesterday was StarBucks. They got me a chicken sandwich and coffee and a muffin with what was supposed to be cream cheese, but one of the men wanted it and got it. I took myself slices of a huge and lovely Nectarine from home. And a cold bottle of my own fermented Kombucha, and drank lots of water!!! And that yesterday's total beat everything!!
UCMerced was the greatest number of donations made up till now.

First I want to sincerely thank everyone for their input!!
Well I went, and I signed up, kind of expensive but I feel it will be well worth it. This diet is ran by our medical center here, not that I trust doctors all the time. I researched and researched this diet all last night through early this morning and actually there are a great deal more positive comments then negative. I guess we will see if I can stick to it or not, I will just have to keep everyone up dated. It was explained to me that what this diet does is resets your pancreatis (spelling) And it is actually not a 'high' protein diet, such as the atkins one. there are four phases and fruits and breads will slowly be introduced back into my diet so that I will eat balanced meals.
