looking to lower choldertrol and weight

Hi,
Just restarted this about 1 week ago and I love it, it keeps me in check. I'm trying to loose about 50lb total and I'm 200 lb and height 5 '7" . I do have the body type that does not loose weight so fast, but I am a strong and healthy person. I welcome any advisement, so far I think my fitness plan is great!

  • Hey, Stacy,

    I also had issues losing weight, so I went and saw a naturopathic doctor who had some blood tests ran on me. To come to find out I was insulin resistance. So he put me on the mediterranean diet and some supplements/vitamins. I have also slowly been adding exercise (don't want to do too much to fast and fall off the wagon) and I have lost weight consistently. If you want more information on the supplements or any recipes for the diet which really isn't a diet more of a lifestyle change just let me know.

    Not to mention my dietitian loves this website.
