Hello everyone! I started my weight loss journey back in September. I hooked up with a Bariatric Clinic that worked with me to establish a meal plan & also prescribed me Phentermine (17.5 mg). I started that right away ... the 1st week I dropped 6lbs. & then maintained about a pound a week after that. I go to the clinic monthly. Long story short ... I missed my November appointment due to sickness @ home & then didn't reschedule b/c of Christmas & the holidays. I have since rescheduled & will be going back Thursday. According to my scales I haven't gained any weight back since I've been "cheating" but I haven't lost any either. So today I have started back on my diet (luckily I still had 5 pills left to get me through Thursday).
I'm not searching to me stick thin! I'm going to be happy @ 160 & then we'll see from there. I have 2 daughters (10 & 8) & since the birth of my youngest I've put on up to 70lbs. I'm only 29 years old & I can't be fat all of my life. I want to have some energy to play with my kids & just to be able to walk up the steps with a load of laundry.
Today is the start of a new life for me. I can't wait to look cute this summer rather than being miserable @ the beach. I'm so excited to have found this site today & I hope to meet & make a lot of new friends.
