"I was diagnosed with high blood pressure in 1998. Then thyroid disease in 2001 and then type 2 diabetes in 2005. I have been struggling with weight since my son was born in 1993. I was 170 when I got pregnant then stayed home with him for a year and gained 50 pounds. Then as age and stress came along, I gained again. Topped out at 230. I was spending over $100 per month for meds.
We went on vacation in Oct of 2006. When I came back I was just ready to finally do something about my weight. I went to my Dr. He and I had been fighting over my weight for 4 years. I was just not ready to accept the advice given to me. He just kept saying "Cut everything you eat in half". I just loved food too much and didnt want to cut it in half. Then in November I just snapped. I got tired of wearing a size 22 and being fat.
When I told the Dr. that I wanted to try Adipex, he told me that with my HBP, he would have to increase the meds for it. I said whatever you have to do to get this off me!. I was working 2 jobs at the time so it really helped me get over the "walk in the door at home and eat" habit. I didnt get home till 11pm at night sometimes. On break I was not hungry so I would eat a banana. I lost 30 lbs by New Year's Day. Then I got stuck at 200. I spoke with a nutritionist at the gym I go to, to do aqua class 2 times a week. She told me to go to the library and get the book " Eating for your Blood Type". I also got "Cooking for your blood type" Those books with Gods help have changed my life. I never realized how certian food affected my blood and kept me from losing weight.
I am now 184 and still going. I cried in the dressing room at Bealls Outlet a few weeks ago since I have not put on a size 14 since my wedding dress, 14 years ago!! They probably thought I was crazy but I didnt care. I now am off the HBP meds and the insulin! Even with thyroid disease I still lost weight. It was amazing to me. I had tried so many other things to lose weight but the mind set was not there. So the combination of GOD, Adipex, and those books has changed my life forever. I gave all my clothes to a consignment shop so that with the money I got, I could buy smaller sizes! It feels so good to be thin again."
