“Dietitian terjebak dengan Atkins”

There’s a girl,at a very young age. Insecured with herself.Due to the social acceptance, she took a shortcut. Manage to lose 15kilo in 1 month! Feel very happy and proud!

Tapi, kegembiraan tu tk lama.

Yes, that girl is me. This is my story.
Bila tengok balik gambar tu,budak budak sangat!
If ada yang cakap, based on their experience. I have mine. But this is before i become a dietitian.

Due to extreme weight loss. I was dx with renal calculi. Thank god. Early diagnosis, kecil je. Tapi sampai admitted lah.
I was having severe backpain. Sakit kat abdomen tu masha allah rasa nk berguling. Kerap sangat nak urinate. Kejap kejap pergi toilet. On Off mcmtu.

Terus consult Dr. I admitted for both Renal Calculi & Teratoma.And i went for a surgery for teratoma that month.
But the one thing yang buat i sedih sangat. Renal calculi/kidney stones tu disebabkan diet yang i buat. Yes, atkins. I dah buat proper research dh baca every article yang ada. Minum air sampai 3L satu hari. Yelah, orang kata kena cover air. But nope.
Thing about Atkins or any diet yang avoid Carbo intake is. You are losing glycogen. Glycogen (dtg dari carb) ni adalah component utk menyimpan air. So minumlah banyak mana pun. Mmg tak akan tersimpan. So i end up with extreme dehydration
Tak cukup teruk. Atkins pulak kata tk kisah makan apa pun. Asalkan tiada carbo. I pun makan protein source banyak banyak. Nak ganti calorie la kononya. Little did i know, high protein diet can eventually lead to renal calculi. Tu belum lagi cakap pasal sodium, processed food
Effectiveness of Atkins? Yes it is. Mmg lose weight kaw kaw! Tapi end up? Masuk hospital, minum la URAL tu tk habis habis. Sakit kat back abdomen tu sampai mintak morphine injection kat Dr. Tp dapat tramal je 😂

Nangissss tk habis habis sebab menyesal!
Sebab tu, lepas i belajar and already become a Dietitian. I really hate it when people encourage others to perform Atkins Diet. Going through both experience as a patient and a healthcare professional myself,

Jazz taknak you all lalui apa yang jazz lalui. Learn from my mistake.
Kalau depa cakap. Keto lain lah kita high fat. Research kata bla bla. Research tu takda pun kat asia sayang. Tak sesuai langsung. We and the fellow researchers tak pernah keluar statement Keto is a better version of diet. Researcher tu HARVARD graduate tau
Dengar lah cakap saya. Even saya tak famous mana 😂. Go for suku suku separuh. Go for calorie deficit. Do not rush. Its life. You need to take it slowly. Please.

With that i end my pathetic story. This is me now, healthier, stronger and happier.

With that. #DietitianJazz101
Eh lupa nk tambah. Kalau ada geng geng FAD diet yang tak setuju. Takpe. Teruskan. I am a healthcare professionals who work with real patients. I dont use only my own experience to come out with a conclusion. So, be it. And dont bother to fight me. Block me if you want ✨
