High cholesterol can be genetic.. see your doctor. You need to know what is high.. the over number and/or your LDL & Triglycerides? I have CRAZY high Triglyceride, I have to cut out simple carbs and unhealthy fats. Cheese is not a bad thing for most diets.. but if you are serious try the Paleo Diet plan.

I am a night eater too.. Milk, peanut butter toast & cereal.. are cravings.. so no bread in the house right now, sometimes I get special K so that at least when i eat, it is only 120 calories plus the nonfat milk. No chips or cookies in the house either.. i have no resistance. I think i need a 12 step pgm for the sugar…

The weight gain, if not a medical issue, is probably Perimenopaus kicking in. I have gained about 30 pounds took off 20 then 20 back on then down 10 then and now 20 more have JUMPED on ! I am on HRT. They are good for all the other symptoms. If we ever win the lottery first thing I am would do is to hire a personal…

I lose in the belly last too ( if ever) ; apparently have the 'apple' genetics’ I carry fat around my abdomen.. Never used to be but here it is now. I have a short waist,, even when I was young and thin, my waist measurement was only a few inches smaller than my tush. There are specific foods to stay away from with this…

Overcoming an eating disorder is tough on your own, I would suggest finding a a good behavioral health doctor, to help you find the root cause for your condition, depression, feeling out of control, or why you are feeling fat at 90 lbs.. Since you are only 20 years old the first goal should be 108.. then keep it at 108 for…

I am 14 years over 40.. and need to lose 45.

I went for the bio-identical hormone replacement therapy with pellet implants , 4 years ago... AWESOME !!

I think FISH were not considered meat during Biblical times, since fish are COLD blooded animals and do not bleed Blood like a Mammel does. Warm Blooded animals are considered "Meat". We raise grass fed beef, so.. Meat is a staple at our house.

I feel like I gave up a Freedom, why should I have to pay attention to what I eat.. Never had to before.. Then reality slapped me in the face .. so now I think, all I gave up was... Eating the WHOLE bag of chips, Candy bars, My mini Ben & Jerry;s, Midnight mindless eating.. oversized Portions ( i thought they were…

The surgery is intense. My sister who is about 50 lost about 100+ lbs and has had 4 surgery's in 2 years. If it were me, I would take it slow, do the tummy tuck and HEAL for about a year before you do anything else. I think she got the first surgery too soon, her body did not have time to adjust to the new weight. The…

Jessica Rabbit

Well I am not going to lie, I got my grandson a little monkey backpack that had a lead on it. I loved it, he could roam around without holding my hand. The lead is NOT to control the kiddo, just to give them some space. They get tired of being carried and having you hold their hands. Plus he kept his toys, pullups and such…

Follow your Doctors advice, get on the Trilipix and get your numbers down while you adjust your food and calories add exercise.. Mine were at 350 then 491 the 687 the 790 now.. I am at 1300 they sent me to the ER last friday when they got the results. Then when you are normalized get with your Dr to tapper off the…

There are people who are super into this if you want to eat only Pure Clean foods, google them. I try to be aware of what I am getting.. For me, Natural foods Organic is best of course but not always practical. Here are my rules. Fast foods and Pre Processed foods are out.. Say NO to …. TV Dinners anything with…

Tom Boys

Me too !! have my spread sheets, & graphs. It's all in the stats/math (and TOM for you young women)

I think for you, if the scale is a real negative thing, use it once a month or 2 months. Then gage your success on how you feel, what your Doctors says and how your clothes fit, like how those old tight jeans are getting loose. I just dont see myself as fat.. in the mirror.. feel like I am a size 9, when I really am a 16.…

Funny answers :) There is NO 'Understanding' Jealousy. Can you understand the Moon? It just IS.. Men are naturally jelouse too... they may hide it better, but let someone take their girlfriend or get a cooler car. It may come out as anger or rage or sarcasm.. still is jealousy. Personally I think Jealousy is for those who…

I caved yesterday and got a 1oz bag of orional lays. They were SOOO GOOD.. but.. lots of carbs for such a small snack. I am think I need the salts. Switching to Nuts.

Awesome work !! You probably feel like a million $$$.. Happy to see your success ! I won't say you look like a movie star now, since you had that beautiful smile before too. My daughter has just lost 85+... Lots of HARD work !!

:flowerforyou: I had partial hysterectomy at 40, I kept my ovaries .. so soon after that I was being treated for Anxiety problems.. racing heart sometime, feeling blue, being forgetful and I thought it was stress.. for years.. so I was going to see a councilor and she asked, how old are you at that time I was 46.. she says…

My daugher has been on a very low carb plan for about a year now.. she is down 88 pounds she looks and feels great.. please look her up PIC_NIK or PIK_NIK or PICNIK (dang I cant remember exactly how she spells it) I am not so good at low carb but she is and there are support groups for that too

I had this too when I was getting back to a healthy body..I told them well you are used to the chubby me... this is the healthy me. Seemed to work.

I am 5'4" and 53 yrs old. Depends on your age and body type. I have a very short waist so never under a 7.. even at 112 lbs. 110-118 as a teenage ( athletic build) 118-129 in my 20's (size 7-9) (Post baby's too) 125-140 in my 30's (still a size 7-9) staring to gain weight fast 140-170 then back to 145 in my 40's (back into…

I carry 90% of my weight in the middle.. I am the poster woman for an 'APPLE'. I have slim leggs but a huge tummy.. It measures larger than when I was 9 months pregnant. I have a very short waist. I may have 3 inches from the bottom of my ribcage to to top of my hip bone.. So long story short it is really unhealthy to…
