Ok, my doctor told me to stop taking the
birth control pill yesterday and lose
weight to get by BP down. I was a little
disappointed to go off the pill because I
have my wedding planned around my cycle
(without the pill I'm very irregular).
She told me if I can lose at least 10% of
my body weight (about 20 pounds) and can
get my BP down, then I can go back on the
pill for a few months before my wedding to
get me regular again. She told me to stay
away from food that's high in sodium as
well. Can anyone tell me the best way to
lose weight? I find I'm very tired when I
get home from work. I have to get active
again. I don't like running or joining
gyms, but I'm thinking of taking swimming
lessons (never did as a kid) or maybe
Jujitsu. Are any of these good for losing
weight? I know it's expensive, but I'm
thinking of going back on Jenny Craig
because I know it works (I lost about 30
pounds last time I was on it). I need
something. Any suggestions would be
great.

Marial Arts, Kick Boxing... things like
that are great for losing weight. Add in a
30 minute walk every evening or every
other evening along with diet and you
should find yourself getting fit in no
time.
