Brenda just as everyone else says, get back to the basics. Keep a journal to help you see what you are eating. Write down the food, how much and calories. Measure everything. Get away from the carbs and back to 70% protein in your diet. Also if you have added back alcohol get rid of it. Alcohol is empty calories and diet soda actually makes you hungry. Drink your water. Do you support group, if not start it will halp keep you on track. And last exercise daily. Also weight yourself so you can keep tabs on yourself. Good luck, Robin 345/133

Catherine- You look great and must feel the same! I just can't believe it. My life is sooo different and much better. I'm much healthier and happier. Alicia is great with the new me! I'm even smaller than her, who would of ever thought! I'm down to 123lbs and my BMI is 22. I actually had Dr. Hill and my primary doc tell me to gain weight. I had gotten to 120. Gain, weight, I never would have thought in a million yrs. that my doctor would tell me that. I'm feeling better, but am still having some issues. I'm totally uncomfortable with my saggy skin in my tummy area. My arms and legs don't bother me too much. I was really hoping that Dr. Hill was going to do the tt when I had my hernia's repaired, but he didn't! I was very disappointed, but oh well, what is a girl to do. I wish I could afford to have it done. I now have a new insurance plan and don't know if it would be covered. Have you been going to the meetings? I haven't been to one since March or April, I don't think I went in May, can't remember. Glad to hear Brett is doing so good. Tell him hello for me. Take care & talk soon! Kimberley 248/123

Brenda, do exactly as Nancy says. Or, try liquids for a week and stay away from bread, pasta, potatos and sugar. Step up your exercize, load up on proteins and drink lots of water!!! It works! Trust me you're not alone as alot of us fall off track. At least you are trying to do something about it before its too late! Stay strong! Mellisia

Excerise, excerise! It's very important to excerise. Best of luck! Kimberley 248/124
