Old doesn't have to mean 'give up'
Last Updated Sep 2007
I am 68 years old and was told it is entirely natural to gain so much weight around the middle as the reproductive system has shut down. I was told that I was probably insulin resistant. Period. No recommendations - no hope - just accept it. I then heard from a friend who is a nurse about the Zone. Very suspicious of the great claims, I decided to do it with gusto. That was Dec. 1, 2006. I have lost 16 pounds, which is very, very neat (two dress sizes down), but more than that my energy is driving everyone crazy. I have enlisted four of my friends - all of them happy Zoners. Moral of my story.......old does not have to mean give up. Take charge of your health and thank you to Dr. Sears wherever you are.
