I dieted with rx diet pills 5 years ago and lost a lot of weight, but gained it all back plus about thirty more. The photos are my inspiration, I don't have to wonder what I'll look like, I know. Oh, I was so ill. I'm much healthier now than I was at 150 lbs.

Now I'm kicking butt with good food choices and swimming.

If you go to my profile, you'll see what I'm facing, but I've made progress, losing 6 lbs in April and May.

Wish me strength!

    Good Luck! I have done it the wrong way before too. I lost 40lbs years ago on diet pills only to gain it all plus some back within a year. Steer clear of the fads this time and just focus on eating fewer calories and moving more.
