It's not easy with the meds! Make sure your thyroid is in normal range too. Everyone is different in how hormones and psych meds work. I gained a lot on zyprexa most of these meds raise your sugar docs are starting to monitor weight and diabetes more. Always keep good communications with your doctors.

Starting over in so many ways life begins after 40! Logging food and getting more active again. The weight is affecting my feet the worse. When you pain exceeds your excuses you start to notice.

Several websites online and your doctor can tell you all about cholesterol. Some people think that if the bad cholesterol is up it is no good, but you have to combine the total cholesterol. Your HDL/LDL and TRIs. The big thing to worry about is your triglycerides count. This is total fat in and through your blood. The…

Yeah everyone is changing every day and as long as you are doing something about it HE should give you credit. It is a good point to bring up because men need SEX and they say bellfat can actually affect your sex life; and men are visual so I guess it just depends on what your future bf/date wants. I believe feeling sexy…

So order something kind of healthy and just watch your portion sizes. You got it right exercise your calories away if you slip up a little! Just STAY AWAY FROM THE BLOOMING ONION GIRL!

I exercise because I feel like I have to. Now that it is a habit it's more like a want to. Benefits of exercise less going to doctor for aches and pains, easier periods, better sleep, and endorphins help you feel good. It's a way of meditation in a way for me whether I'm outside with nature or inside on treadmill like…

I have been trying to stay on a 1300-1500 calorie diet with vigorous exercising three times a week. I have been getting hungry in the night??? I try not to eat after 8pm so if I am not asleep by 11 or 12 then I get hungry again. I have tried celery as it helps lower blood pressure too. Also I bought some whey protein…

THe only thing I can tell you is get a book that tells you how to eat out at a restaurant and watch your portion sizes. It is easy to splurge and don't let others bring you down it is all YOU> If you want something you have to work hard at it girl!

YEs this food is bad, a no no, sabatoge your diet. Full of fat and sodium, even the fancy coffees are fattening!

Ya I went through that about 2 months into a serious diet. Crying spells not sure how to fight them? Dieting is as much emotinal and it is physical. Dr. Phil has a great book out. Keep on Keeping on!

Me too new and hopeful. That's a good way to put it as I've prayed about it so perhaps Jesus will help us!
-
hey Kathy! One thing I'm finding out as I look at Jillian Michael's advertisement above me and read a book by Dr. Phil is you have to have the mentality that you do want to lose weight and real reasons as to why. Keep those goals before you and DON"T GIVE UP!

One word of advice if you do weight lifting to gain muscle make sure you have proper form and use free weights not so much machines. It takes protein to build muscle to get alot of protein. I read about 30 grams or more especially if you are working out alot. When first starting out I kept it to three days a week with…
