i need to learn more about fat loss versus just weight loss. I have been laid up for about 2 years because of left broken hip and right torn groin muscle. I am a type 2 diabetic. i have had a lot of major health problems, but I feel confident that exercising and eating correctly, in other words, a complete lifestyle change with help from your web page and 24/7 diet will get me where I need to be. I have started on a nutritional program and have lost 4 pounds in a little over a week. I have been going to water aerobics classes 4 times a week and see a trainer once a week. I started in October. I am 64 years old, but I know that I am too young to be put out to pasture, so to speak. Thank you for all your information and I look forward to learning more and doing more and more.

I have lost 102 lbs and my wife, 42 lbs. However, we have hit a plateu and we need to become 24/7 fat burning machines. It’s time to showcase a couple with your 24/7 Fat Loss System. we’ll reach the everyday mom & dads out there. Your 24/7 Fat Loss System becomes an “on fire” story to reach those skeptics … And we’ll become your evangelists 24/7 :)

Hi Joel,

I recently finished reading your book “The Cheat to Lose Diet”. I really enjoyed it! I am also subscribed to your blog feed and read your posts on a weekly basis. Keep up the good work!

I had a question about the “Cheat to Lose Diet”. In your experience, are there any side effects if someone decides to stay in the Core Phase of the diet instead of switching to the Lifestyle Phase once they have reached their goal (because they like the weekly meal plan and the one full cheat day)?

Thank you.

Hi Joel,
I submitted my application and made the required payment for your coaching this week and still have not received any notification or follow-up on the program. I am anxious to get started. When can I expect to hear back from you regarding starting the program?

Hi Joel,

I love your input – however I do have a dilemma. I was involved in an elevator crash some 15 yrs ago, when I was 8 mths pregnant. And at the time of the crash my body was bursting with hormones and all the pain that comes with it. At the time I where also at times in need of a wheel chair (prior to the accident) just because the hormonal messup with the pelvis joints that caused VERY bad pain. And as a result, after crashing 6 floors down into the subfloors of the hospital when STANDING, I now have 4 vertabraes injured – inoperable between my shoulderblades, a 14 degree twist to my spine /lower spine and my pelvis got a 22 degree twist, causing my legs to differ in height with half an inch.

After a substantial amount of time at the rehabilitation and pain center, 2½ yrs three times a week, I found out that I need to keep mobile and warm. I can not lift heavy stuff. So I have been walking as much as I possibly can, thereafter. I know my limits – however I do want to get in shape, swimming is sneaky, because if the water is warm, then I can in best case do 40 laps before I sink. Otherwise, if the water is colder then I have to swim with full clothing on (trousers and sweater), which only lands me at best with 20 laps.

Today I can not afford to get to the public pool to swim, and I am walking with a good pedometer. How can I up my metabolism with my condition? I unfortunately barely eat. However when I do, I always go for the protein and the caffeine. I do not eat veggies nor fruits other than banana and avocado. Got any ideas on how I could get in shape? My bmi is in the 30′s and I feel like a sack of potatoes. I have four slices of whole grain bread with light spread. On a good day I have very thin sliced cheese or thin sliced smoked ham on top together with my morning coffee or rice porridge.

Any tips? I am embracing everything as long as I do not have to eat raw veggies

Already posted an intro about myself, Cindy Blatazar and forgot to click the button of Notify me of followup comments via e-mail so if you did read my intro: 50 year old married woman waiting to exercise after shoulder heals for I have gained back about 20 pounds after losing weight down to 165 LBs. Also mentioned would like to be at a weight of 150 – 155 lbs. Please feel free to read the comment I already sent yesterday and comment if you would like to. Thanks, Cindy =)

Hi Joel,
I am 65 years old and basically in terrible shape. 240 lb. and all of it on my stomach. I am retired on disability (since 2002) with Osteo Arthritis in my back after spending 15 years as a Certified Orderly in two hospitals. It is so hard to know where to start so I can lose all this extra weight. There is just so much information. My self image is terrible for the first time in my life and I don’t even want to look in a mirror anymore. I am a musician so you can understand how awful I felt when I looked at pics of myself this summer. I refuse to play in public again looking like I do and most of the time I simply stay home. I am married and feel badly even going out with my wife. Lots of the time I refuse to. Somehow I have to lose this extra weight. I am going to start on your list of natural foods today and hopefully….! I’d give anything to weigh under 200 once more.

Dear Joel,
I am a just turned 50 yr. old woman, married with two adult children and two grandchildren looking to get into shape. I lost weight down to 165 lbs. from medication had to take from my doctor and was very pleased at this weight. I made the mistake of gaining about 20 lbs of it back from drinking those energy drinks and not eating right (very easy to get hooked on those energy drinks) to give me energy while I was suffering from a shoulder problem, very bad burcitis. Had surgery on the shoulder and needless to say can’t do any serious exercising until it heals. Well I have since stopped drinking the energy drinks and am eating healthier meals with a cheat day once a week. Haven’t lost too much weight for I know I must be exercising to get any effects. Am going to at least start walking for that doesn’t involve the shoulder. I enjoy reading what you send me in newsletters and am going to visit your website more often. Hope to be soon starting to workout to get to my goal weight of at least 150-155 lbs and being a healthy 50 yr. old woman. Thanks for wanting to get to know your readers, Take Care, Cindy =)
