Hi Carolyn,

Now's the time to make a change for your health. Has your doctor given you a specific diet to follow? Exercise can help, too. Even if you can only walk a half a block to start...it's a start.

I have some clogged arteries and am too heavy for my size.

Oh Arleen, that IS so disappointing. All that and then the scale hits you with a gain! Sometimes, when we lose fat, it is replaced by water. When that happens, we'll weigh a little heavier, even though we've actually lost weight. This is one reason I've started measuring myself as well as weighing. On my most recent diet, I had only lost three and a half pounds but 18 inches. The 18 inches helped to keep me going!

I am so disappointed. I did the three day diet and it was terrible...and I gained a lb. It said you would lose ..I stuck to it like glue and nothing!

Hi Antonette,

It's always good to talk to your dietician or family health care provider regarding specifics since they know the particulars. However, in general the rule of thumb is to cut down on red meat. Include it on the menu once a week, and make leaner choices.

My fiance is 70 years old and had a heart attack 6 years ago. Is some beef ok in his diet?

Hi Lisa,

With so many health issues, I'd recommend the diet your doctor suggestions. Your health is nothing to play with, talk with your doctor about this and see what he says.

Hi Marian,

It would be nice if you would put the name of the AHA booklet in the implementation section. There are several but one of AHA booklets I think the name of it is AHA, Healthy Diet or something like that. Just giving the home web page without the title of the book makes it difficult since they also deal with booklets with HBP, High Cholesterol, etc.
