Avatar f tn I am 30yo white male in the Philadelphia area. Most of my childhood and all my adult life I have been overweight/obese. As an adult I have always ranged from 235-295lbs being in the high end of that for the last several years. I don’t eat many vegetables, have had my share of gluttonous moments and meals, and overall just had very very bad eating habits and patterns. However I have grown sick of it, I have done keto, low carb, and just been trying to eat better.

Avatar n tn He is approximately 26 inches and weighs 23 pounds. He has been in the 5th percintile on the weight chart since birth- he was 5lbs, 2oz. He eats a lot. Some days, he will eat all day. I ensure that he gets 3 vegetable and fruit servings. I give him beans and eggs for protein, because he is not a big meat eater. He seems to be on schedule as far as developing.
460185 tn?1326077772 The term "Black Friday" originated in Philadelphia in the mid 1960's. (by some woman) It refers to the Friday after Thanksgiving as be the busiest (Christmas) shopping day of the year in the U.S., therefore giving retailers a profit and putting them in the "black".
Avatar n tn I think partly the metformin can help with the weight loss, and with insulin resistance it can be controlled by changing your diet, as well as losing weight. I'm no doctor, but I do think it's possible to ultimately go off the metformin once you achieve a healthy weight and learn how to eat properly to help the prevent the problem. Now that I think of it, my friend is not on metformin. She just sees a nutritionist and is on a strict diet, and exercises A LOT.

Avatar f tn Hello there, It would be really dangerous to you to lose that much weight, ie 15 lbs in 2 weeks. A good amount of weight is about 2 lbs per week. The middle of August is about 4 weeks away. Even in 4 weeks, unless you go on what I would call a drastic diet or a starvation diet which would probably put your body in shock, you can't lose 15 lbs in a healthy way. Some people might think that if you drastically reduce your calorie intake, the weight will just fall off you. This is not true.
Avatar f tn I cannot exercise a whole lot do to a medical condition where I suffer from daily headaches and pressure in my head. Losing weight will actually help this condition. Besides my overall health, this is why it is so important that I lose weight. I have lost weight in the past, but always seem to gain it back.

29837 tn?1414534648 This is the weight I weighed at 27 years old. For many years now, my weight has been 185. The now weight of 175 lbs. is a loss of 17 lbs. in less than 3 weeks after leaving the hospital. Funny thing is, my appetite is ravenous, my blood tests all came beck fine last week, as well as still cleared of Hep C. My energy level is normal I've heard somewhere that because muscle weighs, it has to be taken into consideration when weighing someone.
Avatar f tn Its good you've set a goal and are looking to find out how to achieve it! However losing 15 pounds in a month is unrealistic and unhealthy. Did you know it takes about a year for your body to adjust to losing 10 pounds? It's important to remember weight loss is a marathon and not a sprint. In order to lose weight and keep it off, you shouldn't look at it as weight loss but a way to become healthier!

Avatar f tn I'm a little confused. Is anyone else losing weight? I'm 11weeks 5days. My weight before pregnancy was 180. 6weeks prego my weight was 168, 8weeks was 161, today i'm at 155. I thought in the beginning it was from morning sickness and being actually sick, but for 3 weeks i haven't had a lot of morning sickness since i started drinking sprite and i haven't been sick. I thought for sure by mid 11 weeks i would have gained at least a pound or two. Am I the only one losing?
Avatar n tn As the first comment correctly stated, losing weight fast doesn't last and leaves you weaker, which you don't want to be if you're getting ready for basic training. Why not wait to join the military until you're ready?
