Can I ask how old you are? I'm assuming young adult 20-40? If you are not a frail elderly person then a low resting heart rate is rarely a problem. Athletes typically have low resting heart rates. If means your heart beats strong and efficiently. If a person's heart contractions are not very strong it will pump faster in…

About 5 years ago I started at 200 and got down to 145. I got tired of "dieting" and gained it all back plus 40 more. I'm starting again. I weigh 241 now. My first goal is 199.9. Next goal is 160. I'll see at that point what I feel like. Glad to find some company!

Because I'm not a baby cow.

Well said!

Soy milk and almond milk have twice the amount of calcium and about half the calories of cow's milk. Look at the labels!

Cheese is loaded with fat. Milk to me is just disgusting now. I used to drink a lot of it, but since being enlightened about the dairy industry I cannot drink it anymore. It's loaded with hormones, antibiotics, pus, and fecal matter. Yes, it is pasteurized, but it is still just disgusting to me. After a human is weaned…

I'm 5'9" tall. At my heaviest I was 198. I'm currently 156. My goal is 145.

I think eliminating dairy has more health benefits than eliminating meat.

I love mine! I had them done in March. It was money well spent - worth every penny! I finished having kids and lost 50 pounds and considered it my reward. I give, give, give as a mom, a wife, and a nurse, and I deserved to do something for myself. It is amazing to feel sexy again!

Actually, soy milk and almond milk have twice the amount of calcium as cow's milk, for about half the calories and half the sugar of cow's milk. Read the labels and compare. I very strongly agree with the opinion about cow's milk. Once a mammal is weaned from it's own mother's milk, there is no need for milk of any kind in…

Soups! I keep a gallon size ziplock bag in my freezer and after dinner leftover cooked veggies go in the bag. When it's getting full I make soup - throw all the veggies in with some broth, maybe V 8 juice or tomato sauce and leftover chicken - I can then eat that for 2-3 days and it's essentially free.

I love them! Best money I've ever spent! Feeling sexy again is amazing!

Your #3 is probably the best advice. For me, I can't make a 180-type switch. I start by changing nothing in my diet, but just logging everything I eat. It makes me aware of how much I am actually eating, and I can see where I can make a small, do-able change. ex: cut the amount of salad dressing in half, or have scrambled…

Personally, I like to weigh. I do it once a week. It is very motivating to keep going when I see pounds coming off. Also, a higher quality scale may cost more than $30. If you do decide to buy one, read the packaging carefully to find one that can measure higher weights. It is to me unacceptable that your doctor's office…

I made my goal weight in August. I maintained through Sept and Oct, then went back to my old eating habits Nov. and Dec. I am back on track now. For me, getting back on track starts with just tracking my food, not even trying to make any changes - just entering everything I consume. After a few days of seeing how many…

I can lose slowly eating 1700-1800. I aim for 1200-1500 because naturally, I prefer to lose faster.

I've never tried to bake with it, but I use a packet of it in my oatmeal and like it - less artificial taste than the others to me.
