Soooo.. .. I Been reaallly thinking bout this for months n decided to go ahead with it. I've always been very curvy. It wasn't until I had n lost my twins. Rescued my mom from a fire, had and lost my son. Then had and almost lost my dgtr, that the weight came on along withba unhelpful friend named 'steroids' lol. Since then it's been very very hard to get and keep weight off and I've tried EVERYTHING! I MEANE EVVVVVVVRYTHING! Nothing worked no matter how well it long I followed. Seeing I wasn't the only one gave me hope so I've been goin to Dr appts losing weight each month right? Last mth I lost 13lbs on my own then 2 wks later, June 16th, I got in a car wreck n broke my leg tore acl n ripped meniscus in 2 places. I jus walked with out side yesterday. My f/u, LAST appt is this thur and I'm soooo nervous that I may hve gained a pound or 2 due to my broke leg. I'm like prayin lol. I've been eating as healthy as I cn while I've been dwn but I knw I need cardio too n I can't ????. Im nt sure how to feel. I've done countless hrs of research n interviews support groups... I dnt wanna mess this up ya knw? Anybody else have something tragic come up rite before Ur last weigh in?

Thank u soooo much for the warm welcome Shelia! I went to my ortho Dr today and not only am I released to go back to work but with my shoes, and metal brace on, I was only 2lbs heavier then I was at my last weigh in, so I figure I shld at least be the same weight or a few lbs lighter with shoes n brace off!! Nt bad for being laid up in bed 3 weeks! I thought I wldbe gained 10lbs! That makes me very excited!!!! Then I'll only I've my psych eval which is a no brained. Getting in to one is hard vuz there's only a few who do it but fingers crossed!

And my doctor went head-on and gave my recommendation she told me how as she was for the hard work I've done and I did it without any of the Phentermine so I did it all on my own and I am so proud!
