  • mitch16: I'm 5'5", 133.6 lbs. I've lost from 137 lbs. in a week. I've never had to watch my weight or what I ate, but with age... the pounds won't budge more than a pound or two then back up. I've always been in the low to mid 120 lbs., so to me, this weight is too much.
  • Thank you! That's really helpful. I'm feeling a little light headed and weak - enough not to exercise, so I've got to make some adjustments. I've lost 3.8 lbs in 1 week, whether it's water or fat, it's too much and is affecting how I feel.
  • That's great advice, Dootzy1 because I am not willing to ditch my carbs and sugars for life!
  • I've never had to watch what I ate or my weight in my life, but post menopause, weight is creeping up and I want to curb it now at 12 lbs. instead of waiting until I'm looking at 50 lbs. I am pretty much ignorant about how to achieve that.
  • Thank you, macchiato! I edited my Daily Nutrition Goals and think that looks more do-able. I appreciate the input.
  • Thank you for the very last comment on ratios. I thought this might be a place to get help, but I'll look elsewhere.
  • My apologies for not being clear... I am trying to plan my daily intake, but the only pieces I have are the carbs and sugars. What is a healthy amount of fat and protein per day, taking into account that I have very little carbs and sugars?
