Yea for the Doc! I wouldn't take a statin drug on a bet......irreversible muscle damage! Take Riots advice (cant belive I just said that) about oatmeal and cinnamon. Losing weight is Americas pastime.....so stay focused and pro-active on not just dropping weight, but becoming healthy. Don't worry too much about the corned beef and fries.....waking up the next day is a better deal! Good luck

Your chances of success will go up if you have a partner in the game! you have to be accountable to somebody who has your best interests/goals at heart. Smaller meals throughout the day will help your mind not to think of all the "good stuff" you're missing.

absolute truth. Get your heart rate above 100 bpm for 20 minutes every day and life is good.
