One the weight falls off , at least for me.
Two, the triglycerides drop along with the bad cholesterol LDL.
The weight reduction along with a lot of exercise on my land really killed the cholesterol.
I have one of those step counters on my phone and I average 10K steps a day which translates to over 4 miles a day. Around 30 miles a week with no bread, pasta, potatoes, etc and the weight is staying off.
Funny thing is, and in reference to Chris's post about Charleston SC, you really have to watch what you eat when in the South. I was really banging down the barbeque, Crab cakes, fried foods in general last Winter. It will not happen again this winter as I feel so much better physically. My knees have actually stopped hurting but when you take over 50# off them it's a no brainer.
