[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 642333, member: 1233"] CB,I know you want to be thin and feel good again. What you don't realize is that what your friend did very likely put SERIOUS strain on her organs. I don't know many docs who would recommend her routine as esp as she had so much weight to lose. Losing weight that fast,esp that much, strains not only your heart but ALL of your organs and can take years, if not DECADES off of your life. The body just isn't designed to filter out that much from your body. The kidneys and liver become seriously stressed and the heart does too. The cardio my father in law and stepMIL saw said that his heart attack was directly caused by periods of sudden weight loss that happened every year. He would go on a strict diet and suddenly go from couch potato to exercise nut to lose weight very fast. Over a period of about 10 years it almost destroyed his heart and he had signs of severe kidney and liver damage too. He has changed a lot and a lot of the damage has healed, but it took years of biopsies (VERY painful and can cause severe bleeding or worse if things go wrong, plus the risk of anesthesia each year to have them done) and careful lifestyle choices to get to where his doctor no longer is worried about organ failure happening. I don't care if it looks better to get thin fast the way your friend did. It simply is not healthy, and if you were to make real changes to your lifestyle it would be FAR better than continually dieting or going off and on diets. Your body simply isn't designed to do that. Given that you take medications for medical conditions, your kidneys and esp your liver are at more risk than other people's are. Those medications are filtered out by your kidneys and esp your liver, and they take a real toll on them. You do not want sudden over-exercising or under eating to cause you to burn muscle or even too much fat. The byproducts of burning those, along iwth the release of medications that are stored in the fat (some medications build up in your fat and when the fat is burned they are released and the body has to deal with them by filtering them out), can actually clog your kidneys to the point of failure. Whatever is going on is not normal. Please be sensible until you see a cardio. You cannot do without your heart and your kids would not cope well if they lost you. For all the koi your mom gives you about your parenting, you are your kids constant and their support. [/QUOTE]
