Help the old poop!

True.  They did work.  And they ate good too.  Used real butter etc.  Something I found out at the diet dr...3500 calories is one pound you can run for 30 minutes and only burn 300 calories so you definately have to reduce calories too.

Gene, I walk around 20 miles a week in the winter...40 or more in the summer, plus a lot of bike riding. So what am I doing wrong?

[Ironwood]

You are absolutely right Heather.   Calories must be reduced.  If you walk, say for an hour a day, steady walking, not shopping in the mall. :)  You'll be surprise how well your diet works.  Also you'll be surprised when you get addicted to walking.  :)

[Ironwood]

Ned I'm surprised you are not lean with that much good walking.  I see you are addicted to walking.  :)  Ain't it fun!  Ned you might have your doc take a close look at your medications.  Some meds will cause you to gain weight.       

[Dryball]

That's what I'm worried about....my meds. cant be changed.

[Ironwood]

Ned, they are coming up with new meds everyday.  There may be a substitute for a med that's causing your weight gain, if that's the problem.

you might want to contact a dr. and find out. we are starting to get into an area where one of us could suggest something that could be a health hazzard. on the surface it sounds like your doing everything right. if you have concerns, seek out a professional

[Dryball]

D****! Jean, you said something intelligent! I'm impressed! Just kidding, as you know...but you are definitely correct, that's where doctors are actually useful.

Always lost weight while hiking..6-15 miles a day and carring my camp on my back.. P.S.  I'm now  carring an extra 15-20lbs at all times and not hiking with a pack.  Guess I need to take my own advice.

[Dryball]

Yup. But it do work.
