Hi Lance, If you are overweight, it is not a matter of if you will encounter major health problems: heart disease, diabetes, ulcer, and the like, but when. I applaud your efforts. If you are physically able to walk faster each week, to add a bit of jogging on your walks, to walk some hills, to carry small weights and swing your arms, so much the better. Dr. Bernstein’s book suggests that harder exercise is key; since reading that I have been pounding on the StairMaster when home and walking and lifting harder as well; my last blood pressure was 113 over 69! On the road I do fast walks (I cannot jog at all because of a bad knee) and intersperse sets of 15 squats to get my heart rate up. For my lifting I use thick rubber cords. Keep up the great work; the benefits are huge. And as far as I can see, it is much better choosing life….

Started a very similar type program to what you are on – high protein – very low carbs – weight is slowly just falling off. 30 min walk each day – plenty to eat and feeling a whole lot better and heaps more energy.
7 Kilo’s down and counting.

Best
Lance
