Weight Loss Stalled! WHY? / Re: HELP ME OR I WILL SURELY DIE
« on: February 07, 2011, 04:19:51 PM »
Well after months of 1st, feeling very depressed that I had not lost any weight in 5 months, 2nd trying another diet. I came to the conclusion that this method of weight loss seemed to be the best method for weight loss.  I eased back into it in the end of Janurary and am very aware of the intake of carbs.  Preparing foods ahead seem to be a big help.  My blood surgar dropped big time only once so far, but I have no idea why (57).  I do like  my tastykakes, but I do put a limit on those and I have found the latorilla factory flat bread at my local grocery store and I try to keep to a minimum with those.  I amy really trying to keep those carbs to a bare mnimum.  I do eat meats and veggies from the list from my book,'fat to skinny'.  And I have been trying to come up with recipes that are simple, because I do not like to cook.  So if anyone has simple recipes, please share.  Thanks for the support.

Weight Loss Stalled! WHY? / HELP ME OR I WILL SURELY DIE

 Mr. Varrieur,
 
Please don't be like the Dr. Oz show and send me an auto responder saying you cannot answer all e-mail.
 
I first watched you on the 700 club being interview on how you lost you weight and kept it off.  I watched it several times again via internet on the cbn web site.  I finally decided to by the book.  It was easy reading  and easy to understand. I finally had some hope.  This came at the time when I just had told my family doctor, that I never want to talk to her about my weight again, what ever is, is!

Ath the end of April, I started what you were teaching.  I made some mistakes, but by May 5th, I was on my way.  I tried so many diets and "way of life" diets and never lost weight, so I was afraid to even weigh myself.  By the End of June I went to the office of my endocrinologist, just to weigh myself, and I DIDNOT LOSE 1 POUND.  I had seen by family in Maryland last Easter and was hoping I would have lost at least 20 pounds by August,2010 as my family is coming here for a visit.  People who have given up white flour, pasta, rice as I did, at least lose 5 pounds, but not Joyce Marino.
 
I retired after of 42 yrs of service, about 1/2 of that time I worked 3-11pm.  My body is still on that schedule, so it is very late when I finally fall asleep.  I see clearly that when I am tired and cannot fall asleep, I eat.  Yet I tried to follow what I would be allowed, such a turkey, hard salami or sandwich pepperoni with cheese or the frozen strawberries or sometimes pork rinds with salsa.  Although I felt better, I physically weighed the same.  I am grossly overweight.  I weight 282 pounds and need to lose at least 155+ pounds.  My meds are Humalog 75/25 x 2 daily, 90 units in the am and 80 in the pm.  I also take metformin 1000 and glyburied.  Diltiazam, enalapril and clonidine for my blood pressure and simvastatin for my cholesterol.
 
GOD HAS BEEN MERCIFUL TO ME THUS FAR.  Yet I feel as I am getting older, my time may be running out unless I lose this weight.  PLEASE HELP ME, TELL MY WHAT AM I DOING WRONG!!  Attached is my meals & what & how I am eating.  Is there something that I am doing wrong.
 
Thank You
Joyce Marino
