[quote=Anonymous]I had a similar come to Jesus discussion with my doc last year, with similar numbers (don't remember the numbers, but the range is about the same). I immediately made changes, have kept them, and feel great a year later. I did two things that I think helped: dropped all refined carbs for a short period. No flour, no rice, no sugar. Lots of protein, veggies, fruits, nuts, full fat dairy to keep me satisfied. There is nothing quite so good as full fat plain yogurt! That began to drop off my weight pretty swifty, so I had lost what I needed to (35lbs) in about 4 months. That doesn't make me thin, but took me from obese to the line between healthy and overweight. And I started running twice a week. At first I ran/walked, for just a mile and a half. Then I ran the mile and a half. Now I run two and a half, twice a week. Would more be better? Sure, I bet. But this seems to me enough. My numbers are all back down to normal. Good luck, OP! I must say the reward for me hasn't been in those numbers, but the surprising event of being in better shape at 41 than I was at 31. I may have more wrinkles and gray, but I'd kick my younger self's butt in a race. :-)[/quote]
