Guest guest Posted June 11, 2004 Report Share Posted June 11, 2004 Thought I should delurk and say hello for a moment since I just replied to a post. I've got a long way to go before I will be down in true CRONie weight range, but started our about a month ago and have s-l-o-w-l-y (per Walford recommendations) lost 8 pounds so far. I've never " dieted " before since I have seen to many people yo-yo miserably, mostly winding up heavier than ever. I've always valued health more than appearance anyway, so was more interested in nutritious food and staying active than in losing weight. Of course, the creep of middle age does make one reconsider these things, and having some family members who made it to quite respectable ages, but who were all quite thin, made me think even more about it. That and the incentive of wanting to see my granddaughter's kids kids. I've really appreciated all the posts about peoples menus lately, since this is something I am working on right now. I like a lot of food variety, so I am working on a series of rotating menus to avoid boredom. Fortunately, the only fruit or veg I ever met and didn't like is the dreaded rutabaga. *shudder* I've always had problems with blood sugar drops making me cranky and ravenous, so I am currently dividing food up into 3 small meals and 3 snacklets. Does anyone else do this? So anyway, wish me luck, I should be approaching my " set point " some time around a year from now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
