The article indicates that 1/3 (33%) of the obese people tested had the virus. That still leaves a vast majority of 66% who are evidently eating more calories than needed for their regular activities. So, a true test would most likely have to include people only with the virus, observed over a period of time on a regulated…

Perhaps because of the high fat cheese and sausage? But, then there is salad dressing and why do the good ones always have to have bad fats in them?

Good Work!!! Keep up the healthy habits. Working with animals, even as a volunteer, is a good thing. I retired 12/31/2013 from my own Residential Appraisal practice. Now I spend 2-3 hours a day, 3-4 days a week working at the Animal Foundation. Good exercise, good vibes, lots of happy hairiness.

From 8/2015 to now have gone from 325 to 269. Lost about 10 additional lbs. prior to 8/1/2015. After discussion with my M.D. I signed up with…

(meds, diet, low exercise level??) caused me to take stock and start working. Found a trainer that will work with me and started on Monday 1/19. Have a rough diet plan, 5 days a…

Oh yeah!!! My favorite way to swim! Unfortunately now I swim in pool at the gym and must restrain myself with a proper swim suit. Have you ever gone to the top of a long hill, stretched out on the ground and then rolled to the bottom? IF the answer is yes, were you older or younger than 15 when you did this?

When I lost 100+ lbs. my husband got lots more attentive and acted jealous. Now that I spent the better part of 2 years flat on my back recuperating from two accidents (one right after the other), I have lost muscle tone and of course muscle and gained back about 50 lbs. He is being a bear about telling me what I should…

I'm long term married, not looking and the shortest one in the family at a current 5'8.5" tall. I've shrunk from my 20 year old measurement of not quite 5'11" in my bare feet. Basically, I've dated and married shorter guys than me. Doesn't bother me at all as long as they keep their nose out of my cleavage. That's just…

Fajitas are always good because you can grill instead of fry, chicken instead of beef, go heavy on the onions and peppers. I cheat and use a small corn tortilla as a base and pile everything on top, then eat with knife and fork instead of eating several filled tortillas. Also good sides with any Mexican Feast are guacamole…

I've been tracking and staying on track for about 3 weeks, only a few days with MFP. Haven't lost an ounce according to my scales. But exercise has helped to limber me up a lot.

I've lost about 120 and maintained or reduced the speed of weight loss. Was badly injured January of 2012 and have been recuperating ever since. I gained back 83 lbs. I have that to lose, plus an additional 25 lbs. to get to goal - so a total of 103 lbs. to lose AGAIN! I have been on another site and will stay there due to…

Ten years older and ten years ago, I was well over 300. Lost about 120 lbs. not quite to goal, but maintained. Was much healthier and happier, more active. Then I got broken. 3 years to recover gave me 83 lbs extra and took away my core, leg and most of my arm muscles... It's coming back. We can both do this!!!
