Hello everybody, I just joined this Community, I gained several pounds from a medication that I was on for years. I have severe back problems and due to that I lack the advantage of exercise, so I am trying to take control of my life, it's been 4 days since I had a smoke and 13 days since I was told I had to lose 60 lbs in a month by my pain Doctor. I hope to be able to keep on tract with this, my biggest issue with food is I don't eat enough.

    Does your doctor know it's impossible to lose 15 lbs per week short of cutting off limbs? If you don't eat enough, how do you have 60 pounds to lose?
