Jeannine here, I'm 52, married with two kids age 24 & 26. I'm definitely a yo yoer too. Lost about 30 lbs here a few years ago and gained it all back. Right now I'm doing the wheat belly diet which is no grains, no sugar and higher healthy fats and lots veggies. I don't generally go for eliminating food groups but I had a major swelling problem over the summer and gained 15 lbs in 2 weeks. My thyroid was out of whack (I've had hypothyroidism for 25 yrs) . Happened to see people talking about this in fb and how it helped with swelling so I thought I'd give it a try. It actually worked and I could get my shoes back on. So been doing it for a few months. We' ll see how it goes. Over the last month I've added walking so hoping that helps too. Glad to have the support of this group!!!!!!
