Guest guest Posted December 23, 2003 Report Share Posted December 23, 2003 Hello there. I am new to the sight and I am very interested in learning more about CRON. I just ordered Dr. Walford's books and I can't wait to receive them. Just for info sake, I am a 34 year old female, 4 ft. 11 in. tall and weigh about 105 pounds. I would like to try the CRON diet because it sounds healthy and, selfishly, it would be nice to weigh 95 pounds and be able to stay there. I currently eat the Atkins way, but I know I need to vary my diet with more nutrient dense foods such as vegetables. I am not sure how to start and how to figure out what my daily caloric intake should be. I have eaten less than 1000 calories a day in the past and it has not really caused me to lose more wieght. What seems to have worked when I've gotten down to 98 pounds is exercising at least 2 hours a day with running, tae bo, and pilates. But that's a lot of hard work and I don't always have the time. The reason I would like to get to 95 pounds is because the way my body is shaped, I retain my weight in the midsection which can be sign of future heart disease or other conditions such as diabetes. At least, this is what I've read in medical magazines, books, and journals. I figure at 95 pounds, I could possibly be leaner and healthier. Also, there are tons of people who are taller than me, say 5 ft. or 5 ft., 1,2, or 3 inches tall and theny weigh in the 90s in pounds. So if they can be at such low weights why can't I? Any suggestions? Well, I hope to get some advice and inspiration from anybody who may have been where I am now. Can't wait to hear from you!
