I will be the first to say that I was never &#8220;small&#8221;.\u00a0 After each of the kids were born, I would gain 20 to 30 #.\u00a0 However I realized over a year ago that I now weight more than I ever have in my life and that was above the 200 pound mark. I struggled most of last year attempting to diet and even began exercising on an semi regular basis.\u00a0 It was just not working or life happened and I stopped for whatever reason. One of the goals that I have set for this year is to reduce my weight at least to an level that is not considered obese based on BMI scales.\u00a0 I was able to lose weight in both January and February by counting carbs. In March I sort of staled out again.<\/p>\n<p>I recently had a appointment for my\u00a0yearly physical which in my case\u00a0is about once every 2-3 years!\u00a0We discussed my weight and I\u00a0discovered that I had also achieved the exact same weight loss last year by July but managed to gain it all back. After some discussion I was given <em>Phebtermine HCL 37.5mg.\u00a0\u00a0<\/em>I was also given some pretty specific instruction including this is a short term one time application, I have to report biweekly weight, diet of 1200 calories a day\u00a0and am to monitor my blood pressure EVERY day.\u00a0\u00a0I did some research and I am encountering some of the side effects \u00a0however I have lost two pounds in the evening!\u00a0\u00a0 I am excited!! One of the ways that I am currently tracking most of the nutritional information, exercise and water consumption is the <em>:My Fitness Pal\u00a0 <\/em>app on my phone. I know this will not be easy and I plan to achieve the maximal benefit from this drug so I mostly definitely need to be down in the 100s prior to three months.<\/p>\n<p>After a discussion with Matt, I have purchased several addition things this month including a food scale and lots of green veggies and even some fruit. So I will say that the cost involved is starting to add up so that I am under even more pressure to make this work. But I know long term these cost are necessary! Anyone want to join me?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Check out the 128 calorie salad I made for myself yesterday!
