    Hello....I'm in the same boat :) Need to drop 60 to 70 pounds....! Any suggestion you have would be welcome. I'm trying to stay within 1400 cal./day and have just finished a round of HCG which help me get started on the journey.

    My thought is this. I don't have diabetes. But I would not try to lose more than 2 lbs's a week. It's something I have always wanted to rush and it always bit me in the butt every time. I have been working out. Keeping my calories at around 1800 a day. Eating back all or most of my exercise calories. and learning from my mistakes and not letting them defeat me. I don't deny myself any foods that I love, and there are lots. I just watch the portion size. Also, LOG EVERY THING!!! It keeps you accountable.
