I have met twice now with a Weight Management MD.
I was given an EKG & a Body Composition analysis.
Now I'm beginning a medically monitored aggressive weight loss program. (with weekly appointments, Prescription drugs, and Amino acid capsules)
The tests indicate that I am insulin resistance (metabolic syndrome).
The components of the program include:
Water
Record Keeping
Calorie Counting & Measuring (avg between 900 & 1200 at first) this may increase or decrease as needed by weekly meetings & personal feelings
Protein Counting (90+ grams per day)
Low Carbs (w/ emphasis on complex carbs)
Meds
Multivitamin 2-3 x per day
Omega 3 Fat / Fish Oil Capsules daily
I'm to focus on the Quality of my choices, The Quantity of my choices and the Timing of my choices.
One thing that I've realized about myself is the since I don't like to lose - I've quit trying to lose weight (since I can't be unsuccessful if I'm not truly trying)
This is my chance to be successful once and for all.
I will attempt to check in occasionally & update my progress.
Wish me luck.
This is basically a medically monitored low carb approach.
It's interesting how 3600+ hits have checked in to see my "Blob" thread.

Good morning, Curly. Nice to hear from you.
I think that the bottom line is that you are at LEAST trying to do something. So many people just give up. You keep at it and that is admirable.
We haven't heard from Lindy in so, so long. I looked it up, she last posted in 2009. I can't believe it has been that long. Amazing.
