My carpel tunnel is better so maybe I can type again. Dr. Oz & another Dr. recently stated that some b/p meds can cause weight gain. They didn't say what to do about it since one can't go off meds. Apparently some of Oprah's wt. was from her b/p meds.
After experimenting last year, I've found that I just can't do the 1500 cal/day diet & hope to lose anything. My Endo didn't want me to go lower. I don't think he believes that I eat very healthy as he is afraid I won't get enough nutrients.
Yes, I think we need to do a weight loss thread because weight has such an impact on b/p. I've found such inspiration from how others cope with losing or maintaining their wt. Dr. Laura talked about how her husband can eat high calorie deserts. She just sits & enjoys the conversation because she loves how she looks in clothes plus the obvious health benefits. Lately, my husband has been buying some of my favorite foods which he hasn't done in the past. I usually don't like his choices. He likes them out on the table or prominent in the frig cause he forgets to eat them. Imagine that, forgetting to eat a tasty desert. Right now we have a piece of cake that is getting moldy in the downstairs frig.

I better get rid of it cause the person who made the cake is coming over for cards next Monday!!! Fam
