Good Morning Everybody,
I just turned 65 and have been on Atkins since January 02. Right now getting a little discouraged and wondering if I should try something else. I had lost about 30 lbs in the first 6 months and then just stopped losing.
I joined Curves last September and have lost about 10 inches total, but no pounds. I go to Curves at least 3 times a week and feel much stronger, just not losing. I lose inches in one spot and gain inches in another. very confusing.

Maybe we can get this thread moving again and get ideas from some succesfull seniors. I do have a thyroid problem, but it seems to be taken care of by synthroid.

The other meds I am on are zestral and sometime celebrex for joint pain.

With the nice weather finally coming to Wisconsin, I am walking more. I still work full time also.

I would appreciate any advise from others. I really stick to my diet and eat about 75% fat and 20-30 carbs a day. I even dropped down to induction again, but no help there at all.

HELP

BevB
