You look fabulous!

Why would you think that? A diabetic diet is pretty much identical to South Beach. Diabetic diets are carb restricted,

I have to friend you Lady!!!

Genes play a big part of it. Macros for one person may be ok but the same diet would cause high cholesterol in another. The same for sugar intake. I guess it all depends on the goal of your program, whether it is losing pounds or reducing your risk of illness and chronic disease. I have encountered many skinny unhealthy…

My friend at work just did 30 days. He looks fabulous and went back onto a plant based diet. He went from a 46 pants to a 34 and he was glowing. I think he lost 46 pounds. He has done many diets in the past and is a triathelete but he said he has never felt better than when he juiced.

Thanks for the advice. I have mild osteo arthritis but don't think jogging would be out of the question medically.

WOW! You are an inspiration!

Thanks so much!

I think we have to acknowledge the benefit of this surgery in certain people. Co morbidity risks may make the surgery preferable. Sometimes, time has run out. I have a brother in law who died from complications of obesity at 48 years old leaving a 12 year old behind. Surgery could have saved his life. Diet and exercise…

Such a hostile response to a relatively benign question?

i have juiced for 7 days and my joints felt 100% better and my skin looked great. it was to really give my body a reboot and it worked. i am now juicing some meals. It helps me.

LOL. I started today and it was HARD for me. I think you have age in your favour:laugh: ! LOL:laugh:

I cannot do them either. Kills my knees!

Fantastic!

I put mine straight on the grill with nothing but Salt and Pepper.

It that the little french deli in Manhattan. i ate a boiled egg and toast ther for breakfst once and it was delish!

I was making a two hour drive on I-4- Enough to make you drink in the car. Got starving hungry and stopped at five guys! Had been doing well but I did log it and now am waiting for the judgey comments! Oh well. another day!

The mean green juice from joe the juicer is good. I always had apples/ oranges and carrots for breakfast and then greens and a little citrus the rst of the day. I found the less ingredients the better. Celery and cucumber create a lot of juice. Kale and spinach are good. I HATED beets juiced-Made it taste like dirt IMHO

If your co morbidities are high ie the complications of obesity-Joint pain, diabetes, hypertension, then weight loss surgery is often the best route. Obviously it requires a lifestyle change. Lap band surgery has a high weight return rate becuse people re stretch, Full gastric bypass is radical and gives you life long…

Kudos. Great job!

Huge difference!

Pretty amazing transformation!

I actually had a Doctor recommend that I add butter to my coffee in the morning. He said it will help with any cravings and help me not have the feeling I am losing the will to live. The only problem, I lost the will to live at the thought of it.

You all sound positive. My husband is thinking of getting it done. Any regrets?

My only comment-Wow you look good!

SW: 261 CW: 245 GW For the month of May: 232 UGW: 180 May 3rd-245 Hopefully things change!

Wow. Great job!

I wish my 245 looked like your 240!

Its no surprise that so many of us Nurses have weight problems etc. Too much caring for others. I am a Director of Nursing and have always been overweight but have gained 10 pounds per year since taking this position!
