  • No, unless I have a medical need, I won't have another appt for a year at least. I just thought my latest numbers should have been better, reduced more
  • no, this was not a health fair. this was the lab I went to for drs. appt i had had. I did fast for slightly over 12 hours. The evening before I had had my green smoothy - like 3 cups of kale, and 1 cup strawberries, abt 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder, some benefiber and i think i did coconut oil - somewhat over a…
  • I found it. i had 31.2 mls/kg/min. That places me in the 50th-60th percentile for my age and gender with a rating of average-good.

  • I am Dorie and I just joined this site today. I began losing weight January of 2013, but things have really stalled this last month -- well they slowed tremendously, actually, after 6 months. I started at 212.6 lbs and I am down to 153. Normal bmi is 149.9, but I really want to be 120. This goal dealio, is not very…
