Lifestyle plans have two important components: activity and nutrition. I recommend walking as an activity, it is universal and doesn't cost you anything. However, nutrition is more complicated. There are many diets being promoted in the media: Keto, Atkins, South Beach, Low-Carb, Paleo, Intermittent Fasting, etc.! The variety of competing diet methods makes it clear that no single diet works for everyone! However, a medically supervised plan can work in conjunction with many of these diet methods to not only help you achieve your health goal, but more importantly, allow your doctor to help you do so safely.
