Rate of weight loss: depends. It takes about 3,500 calories to burn a pound. Don't know what your normal caloric intake is. Bottom line is that weight loss will be determined by your calories ingested being less than your calories burned.

Well: First of all you must be healthy. See your doctor about the Avon. You should be able to have a safe and comfortable exercise plan for you. 1300 calories is not much. You will lose weight but again what you really want to do is to be healthy. Have your doctor help you

I'm 28 and don't smoke. Can I still have an AFib or Angina if my EKG, chest X-ray, blood, and stress test came back normal? One EKG showed abnormal heart rhythm but 4 others ( taken within 5 month span) showed normal heart rhythm. I'm really scared.
