This Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) list is based largely on the personal experiences of
the members of alt.support.diet, most of whom are not health-care professionals. As such,
it should not be regarded as a complete or definitive manual on weight loss or
maintenance, but rather as a concise collection of practical information and suggestions
that you may find useful in your quest to achieve a healthier lifestyle. Before
beginning a weight loss program, you may wish to first consult your physician to rule out
the possibility of medical problems or conditions which should be factored into your diet
and exercise plans (e.g., pregnancy, thyroid disorders, diabetes, hypoglycemia, heart
disease, etc.).
