Mellina

My Dr. did not mean that in a negative way. I'm about 45-50 pounds overweight. He told me I could lose the weight with strict dieting but you will never lose the tire around the middle at my age-58. It is harder for the spare tire to go away even with excercising. He did say 30 minutes of simple walking would help so I do hit the treadmill as much as possible. But the tire is here to stay.

That seems to be so true about the spare tire! Even though I've lost a lot of weight, the middle is still there. My dr. said if I want to get rid of it I will need surgery. It is all flab! I keep eating low carbs since carbs is what causes belly fat, but I know mine is a lot of blubber!
