Hi everyone! My name is Heather and I am trying to lose at least 65 pounds. My weight gain was due to being prescribed Seroquel to help me sleep. That medication causes you to gain large amounts of weight, and raises your A1C level. So since I started taking it 2 years ago, I have gained almost 70 pounds. I have PTSD, so we have to wean me off my Seroquel because we found a new sleep medication that has been a HUGE blessing. So my regular doctor referred me to a weight management clinic and I have started taking Adipex and Tenuate. I have never had to diet before, so all of this is new to me. My husband and I were in the process of trying to get pregnant with what will be our last baby, but I want to be at a healthier weight to do that. So, I know the journey will be long..but I have to do this for myself and my family!

    Thank you so much!! Do you know if anyone on this website uses the meal planning website called www.emails.com? We have using it for several months and the hubby and kids love it, I just can't find the calorie counts for some of the recipes that aren't low calorie, low carb, etc. I'm praying someone has done some research and found the calorie counts for some of the meals :)
