Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I have to pay to use the site?
   No, the use of the site is totally free.
   
   
2. Is this just like every other diet I’ve tried?
   NO! Myphonediet.com allows you to eat the foods that you like and will always eat even after coming off all of those other diet programs. There are three key components of the diet that make it the most successful program available. The weight loss is gradual, the caloric changes are gradual and the food is part of your normal diet. Myphonediet.com has created a program that will continually monitor your weight and compare it to the amount of calories eaten. It will allow you to see graphs of all your information.
   
   
3. How does the diet work?
   Just enter your weight, your goal weight, and the amount of calories you eat everyday (your best guess). The program will begin to adjust your daily calories based on your daily weight. Keep track of your calories by using your calorie counter. Pick foods from your food pantry for every meal. Try to come as close to the calories that the program gives you. It is important that if you do not know how many calories are in a food that you either find out or don't eat that food. If you eat at a restaurant ask the owner about calorie content of the food.
   
   
4. Should I talk with the doctor?
   That is up to you. The great thing is that there is professional support available at a price that is probably no more than you would spend on your co-payment or visiting a weight loss program that only weighs you and gives you a group lecture. This is personalized assistance at your convenience. You do not have to take time off of work or spend money on gas to drive to the physician's office.
   
   
5. Do I have to pay to talk with the doctor?
   The doctor with your permission is going to review the information that you have created on myphonediet.com and form a plan to help with your diet. He will be spending approximately 15 minutes with you on the phone and also time reviewing the information before calling you. The payment is for these services.
   
   
6. Can I talk with the same doctor every time?
   Yes, if the physician has an appointment time available when you wish to talk with him. We try to make every effort to have the same physician available.
   
   
7. How can I figure out how many calories a food is?
   If the food has a nutrition label than just copy the calories for that serving size into your food database. Note, make sure the amount of calories is for the correct serving size. For people preparing there own food, you must add together the calories for each ingredient and than divide the total amount of calories by how many servings you get from the food you prepared. We have links to help you find calorie amounts for different foods.
   
   
8. How will I maintain my weight?
   The great feature of myphonediet.com is that the calories are always adjusted to keep you around your desired weight even if your activity changes.
   
   
9. Why should I spend time entering foods?
   The best thing about myphonediet.com is that all the foods that you entered remain in your database forever. Most people eat 90% of the same foods everyday. Once your pantry is created you won't have to add many entries later. The time you spend is an investment in you health. You only need to enter each food one time and than it is there forever.
   
   
10. Can I use this program if I have medical problems?
    You should always consult your personal doctor before any change in nutrition. If he agrees the great thing about Myphonediet.com is you can show your doctor your information via the internet on his computer or your cell phone PDA!
    
    
11. Can I use this program if I am going to have weight loss surgery?
    Yes, this is an excellent program to keep track of your weight and document the type of foods that you are eating. It allows your primary care doctor to have information to enter into your chart for the insurance company to look at in order to get your approval. And after weight loss surgery it is an great tool to keep track of your total protein and calories.
    
    
12. How is this program affected by exercise?
    It is always to your benefit to exercise everyday even if only for a limited time. Always consult your own physician if you have medical concerns before starting to exercise. The program looks at your weight loss vs total calories consumed to calculate how many calories you should eat on a daily basis. If you exercise the program will not decrease the total number of calories allowed and your weight loss will be increased. If you stop exercising for any reason the program will decrease calories if your weight should increase.
