The instructions in the book and the online videos tell you to measure sitting down, with the joints at right angles. |

Right, for the torso-height and upper-leg-length measurements. For lower-leg length, the book says (p. 59) to stand in your stocking feet. |

Hey, now. You have to understand, Dr. D. This is all new for us. We read the entire book and there was so much new stuff, it was a little overwhealming (especially for some of us who have to have things spelled out real simple-like). (I do think that's the fastest I've ever read through a book that size.) And some of us are close enough in measurements for it to be a big deal whether you're sitting or standing. Makes the difference between Warrior and Teacher for me, and those two diets are very different. It's "Measure once, eat twice. Or, measure twice, eat once." |

I'm reacting to the Peppermint Patty part of the thread. |

The idea came from Sheldon's 'atlas of man' where he used animal metaphors for the somatotypes.

carnivs "R" us.  Chloe, Maybe you should join us explorers for a trial. I can totally relate to how you are thinking and questioning. I had so many questions I couldn't ask them all. There are many of us who are interested in details. I don't like answers to be glossed over, either. Obviously we are all passionate about Dr. D' and his diets. I have no doubt that the theories and facts that Dr. D. proposes will stand up to heavy scrutiny and who better to scrutinize and question than those who are on your side. Keep up the interesting questions. |
