anabolic diet

[catwoman]

I am an ex body builder who was struck with renall kidney failure and have gone from being 115 and 10% body fat to 140 and over 25% body fat. I have been re-reading up on the anabolic diet and wonder if it would work in my case to shed the fat and allow me to regain what I have lost

Catwoman –sorry to hear about your experience and hope you are doing better, I can not answer your question directly, but you may want to post this question on the diet discussion board also.

Good luck.

My wife has tried a bodyopus diet by dan duchain (similar to Anabolic Diet). and it worked ok for her but she does better on zone type diet (1/3 protein, 1/3 carbs, 1/3 fat). Unfortunately i find that for any kind of a ketogenic diet (very low carbs and lot of fat) to work people need to be already fairly lean, man 10-12% and woman 15%-17% or lower. I have also heard that a lot of people get fat in their overeating (high carbs) part of the Anabolic diet.
Hope this helps some and sorry to hear about your troubles, stick to it, and every thing works out in the end. Good Luck!

I am a fan of the anabolic diet, but dr dipasquale's next book the METABOLIC diet may be better for you

Have you have your thyroid function checked?
Are your Test and HGH levels low?
Is your estradiol (estrogen) level elevated?
Are you diabetic?
What is your age?
What meds are you taking now?
Are you on dialysis?
Just some questions to help answer yours.

I have had my thyroid checked and it is fine. The whole reason for gaining weight was the disease was classified as cancer. I am 30 years old and before the cancer was set to start competing. My treatment was a combination of the drug Interlukin and a mild form of dialysis. I have been in remission for 9months and I am currently on a high protein diet under the suggestion of my doctor belive it or not.
