Why are certain foods not allowed on my program? For example, why are carrots not on the VLCD 800 program?
The food choices on each program have been carefully selected to provide a balance of nutrition that may be unique to each program. However, even nutritious choices may be limited due to the nature of the program. For example, the VLCD 800 program is aggressive and more restrictive in menu choices than many of the other Physicians Weight Loss Centers programs. This helps provide structure and control while on the program. Some nutritious items that are not choices on the VLCD 800 program may be allowed on a more flexible program, such as the LCD 1000 or any of the Low Fat High Energy programs.
