ETA: I am not a dr. etc. etc... and I'm only superficially familiar with the various diet plans... but IIRC Weight Watchers is low fat? Good fats are definitely implicated in neurological health. (As well as being important for weight loss... you may find that you actually lose more weight on a diet that's rich in good fats.) Maybe try an Omega-3 supplement like Udo's Choice or freshly ground flax seeds, or just try to get more good fats in your diet - cut out something else if you want to keep the same total calories?
OakLeaf.... that's interesting about the good fats. I never knew that about the diet and neuro health... but I live on those. DH was suppose to convert to the South Beach Diet way for his cholesterol, but *sigh* is non-compliant. I, however, follow some of the principles and am an almond eating monster, good fat freak. I would NEVER buy anything "fat free" ever again after reading that book. Fat free was the big fad I used to live by. Shooot... all they did was strip out the fat and dump in empty carbs to make it taste richer. I eat the low carb/high fat salad dressing, non-oily nuts (not peanuts, oily = not so good), etc. Maybe it's helped my neuro health without even knowing it. Thanks for that.
