Another newbie with questions

Hello
I just bought the book, The "McDougall Program" four days ago, have read 60 pages so far. I stopped eating meats and junk food about two weeks ago because of digestion problems, which is much better since eating fruits and vegetables only. This diet looks great with all of the recepies to choose from. I have a couple of questions, I am 6' tall, medium build and 175 lbs, I really do not want to lose any weight, if anything I would like to gain a little. Will the McDougall diet make me loose weight or just put me where I need to be? I had some blood work done about one week ago, the doctors office called me a couple of days ago and would like me to stay away from carbs. They said the lab results looked good except my good cholesterol was low, this is a high carb diet, if I tell the Doc I am going on a high carb diet he will think I am crazy. He wants to do more blood work in four to six weeks, I plan on doing the McDougall diet and see how the next lab results look, what do you think?
