A risk for the infirm maybe but I am anything but.

I have NO diseases, no infirmities and no health
problems. When one is overweight the BEST thing
to do is get rid of the weight as fast as possible.

Of course, starving is not a safe thing to do but
eating right and exercising the weight off IS.

I got it that low simply by exercising, losing 25 pounds
in the last month,

Weight loss beyond 5 pounds per month can be dangerous. 25 lbs is a huge
risk
for the elderly.
Look it up.

Speed of Weight Loss When Dieting
If you have more than 15-20 pounds of weight to lose, the fastest realistic
speed of weight loss is about 2 pounds per week.

Of course it is possible to lose weight faster, but too rapid weight loss can
cause problems.

1. You may develop loose skin, especially if you lose a lot of weight.

2. You may lose too much water weight. Since water weight is regained within a
very short time, this can be de-motivating.

3.You are unlikely to develop the type of improved eating habits that are
necessary to sustain the weight loss and prevent weight regain.

4. Losing weight rapidly can "shock" the system and has been linked to stroke.

Fatalistic bullcrap. As you can well notice, I'm still here.

More fat people die from strokes and heart attacks than people losing
weight.

Water weight is a myth.

Developing proper diet has nothing to do with losing weight.
If one had a proper diet and exercised regularly one would
not have to lose weight in the first place.

Loose skin will tone up after a period of time unless the
skin is permanently stretched as is often the case in
morbidly obese people who often have to have folds of
skin surgically removed. Being 20-30 pounds overweight
does not stretch the skin permanently.

Sure it does, especially with someone your age with skin losing elastic
properties.

And even less for people who lose weight properly and safely.
When I dropped 44 lbs, I did it properly. I'm now 210. I kept most of my muscle
mass. I can crush a coconut in either hand, though I have a body guard friend
who can do the same.

But I'm young, so I have more time to enjoy it. Few people in my family die
before 95. We already know you have early mortality in your family!
I still have a great Grandfather walking around!

That's why one must exercise the weight off and
eat properly otherwise the muscles as well as the
fat comes off. The only way to not lose muscle
mass is eat right and exercise while dieting.

The muscles are what burn the fat. When I say
eat right I mean eat the proper mix is proteins and
carbs plus vitamins and minerals. Drinking plenty
of water is very important as well. Eating too many
calories is counterproductive when it comes to
weight loss. Eating too many calories is good for
body builders.

Early mortality in my family? What gives you that idea.

My father died when he was 79 and my mother when she was 80.

I'd say they both beat the actuary tables for people of their
generation. Anyhow, having longevity in one's family is not
necessarily an indication that YOU are going to survive that
long. So go on dreaming. Your life is useless at best so whats
the glory in dreaming about it lasting for a hundred years?

A hundred years of uselessness is pretty useless.

That's what gave me the "idea."
My great grandfather is 103. My grandparents all over 84. My father is only 66.
My mother died young, but not from natural causes. The average lifespan in my
family over 120 years of known history is 96!
I win again!
