I have lost 25lbs. in less than three months by doing this and still losing each week.

I have stayed on many meds while losing.

I am still losing with this approach, fortunately.
I am on psych meds and prednisone (every day).
Low carb and calorie counting. 35 lbs so far.
Keeping my fingers crossed.

These meds -- uggh.

Love to all,

WC
