Hi there! I'm on the beautiful Eastern Shore of Maryland also (Kent Island).

I like my Versa 2. I just got it and am still getting used to it, but the calories burned take into account regular calories from being alive. I actually thought at my high weight I would burn even more calories than it is showing.

Thanks. I will definitely work on the 6 you mentioned. I am currently on medication for the pvcs and thought I was getting better; however, over the past couple of weeks I had several bad episodes. I immediately called my cardiologist and he is going to put me on a monitor again. However, I'm not sure whether what I…

Hi Lynda, if you don't mind sharing or messaging me. I'm looking for someone who has had cardiac ablation done and can really tell me what it is like. Did you have this for VT or Pvcs? Did it hurt afterwards, could you return to work? Did it help? I've of course spoken with my doctor and seen the pamphlets, but would like…

Hi. I know this is a really old thread, but I am just wondering if any of you also happen to have been diagnosed with PVCs or Ventricular Tachycardia? If so, do you think the physical symptoms may create the panic attacks? I have pvcs and VT and my doctor has given me the option of getting a cardiac ablation, but the…

Thank you, I appreciate it. From what I can see, by the calculator I was still overeating.

Courageous.

Friend, most of us go through these ruts. I've struggled oh so much. I don't want to say 'shake it off' because I know that is so much easier said and done. If you are on any pain killers, it would be good to come off asap if you can do without because paid meds can make it, from my personal experience, where you don't…

Keeping his socks on

Yes, thank you... someone earlier had mentioned this and provided a nice link about this. I had never heard of NEAT before. This is definitely something that I am trying to change because I have sat around for so many years. I'm moving my desk to a stand up position and trying my best to pace around as I can when doing my…

Hi. I was just rereading this thread to make sure I'm not missing anything. I'm really being careful on my portions and weighing just to make sure. Now as far as exercise, I have been doing my light weight lifting everyday (either at gym or home) plus I walk for 45 -60 min slowly. I had been counting weight lifting time as…

Do you know how to tell if your electrolytes are off?

Hi. I've been doing low carb (not quite keto) along with IF now for the past 4 months. I've been exercising at the gym or at home every day. I don't have a lot of stamina so, I use light weights and on the treadmill I'm good at 2.5mph, but I can do this for 45 min to an hour. I'm wondering if I should not be trying to…

Do you recommend any of the specific online classes?

Thank you so much for writing such a detailed response, very kind of you. :)

Thank you for sharing this article. I found the myths also particularly interesting since it pretty much discredits everything I've read in my Women's Day magazine. It is good to know the truth though because I was seriously adding hot peppers to everything I could. I am definitely going to focus on my NEAT. This should be…

Ok. Thank you.

Thank you for your response. It definitely can't hurt to ask about the test.

Are you asking about not having sex? I'm confused.

Thank you for your response. I'm not sure what part of what you said people disagree with. I really don't know enough on this subject to have an educated opinion. But I do thank you for your response.

I love cowboys.

I just got around to looking at the thread you linked. This is good. I'm going to start implementing some of these.

Good advice thank you!

Sweetie, if this is working for you, you just keep doing it. You are losing weight and you are enjoying the food and exercise you are doing. You are on a plan which 1) you are successful with and 2) you enjoy. Just keep at it, keep your chin up and you will get there. Have fun and enjoy yourself. So many people look…

fun

haha. I'm sorry.

Men with hair buns, skinny legs and wear Birkenstocks.

Men who would rather play video games than play sports outside.

Well, I'm doing like you are, exercising and dieting. My weight loss is slow, but I am probably twice as old as you. Different people & different plans have different views on which path to follow. My step-daughter is currently on the Optavia plan (I believe) and she shared that it is strictly food focused in the beginning…
