Whats up fellow OH'ers. Been a while. Man am I struggling big time. I have put on an addtional 30 lbs since quitting smoking about 3 months agao. That, and horrible eating choices. With the support and encouragment of my loving wife I am hitting it again. Starting back to the basics. Protein, protein and more protein. Not sure how much I will be on here but I wanted to stop in and say hello and let yall know, although WLS is a lifesaver and a great tool, its not a magic pill and you gotta work at it, change the way you think about food. To all you noob's out there, stick to your plan, dont venture from it.

 
                  I would like to help you but you cant fix stupid.

John I'm so sorry to hear you're struggling but certainly understand how easy it is.  Have you considered the HCG diet?  I know...another diet!!  It's NOT EASY but it offers amazing results to those that can stick with it.  My husband has lost 20 lbs in 3 weeks and he cheats a lot!!  I personally know of several OHer's that are using it as well with great results.  One of our friends lost 50 lbs in 4-5 months and looks amazing plus she's actually been able to maintain her loss so far. 

Anyway, NO I'm not selling the stuff (for those that think I am) but just wanted to throw the idea out there.  Basically you do sublingual drops 2-3 x a day of the HCG hormone and stick to a very specific 500 calorie/day diet.  The drops help with hunger and speed up your metabolism to prevent you from going into starvation mode. 

If you or anyone else is interested, I'll provide you with the name of the person I got my hubby's from on ebay cuz there are a lot of FAKES out there.  It cost him about $30 for a months supply. GNC carries it for $80 for a 21 day supply-ebay's way cheaper and I got his in 2 days.  Anyway, good luck and if you want more info you know where to find me, lol.

Send me the info please. The only negative is that it is a female hormone, if its realy HCG, and that can cause Moob growth!
