my son, who is 18, is naturally slender. I have always worried about his high fat, high protein, but low calorie (he eats very little) diet. Now, after eating his WOE and reading Gary Taubes, I am not sure that I was right to worry! But, being his mom, I still do.
He doesn't eat many sweets, always eats starches combined with protein and fat. My main issue with his diet now is the soda. He craves soda and is willing to make some changes (emphasis on some) to his diet. I asked him to cut down on soda and he says and drink what? He does drink water, but that isn't going to replace soda.
So what would you recommend to him? Diet soda is out for him. RIght now he is willing to do either juice or chocolate milk. Which would you encourage?
