    Please DO share your secret!! I also joined MFP in January, started eating healthy and exercising. I've lost 21 lbs so far. I'm quite happy with my success thus far, but I was just wondering how on earth you've managed to lose 70 lbs in 3 months!!

    In three months I lost 27 pounds and I thought that was good. Wow 70 pounds since impossible in 3 months but good for you. I hope whatever you did is sustainable.

    That's great, but awfully fast. Please be careful--there is a reason why most experts suggest losing no more than 2lbs a week--our bodies just can't handle it that easily. Richard Simmons lost 100 lbs in a month and it nearly killed him--he wound up in the hospital and lost all his hair, so that's implants on his head.

    But if you are doing it under a doctor's supervision and being very careful, it's wonderful. Good luck to you.
