Hi, My name is Donni and I am here for some support for my weight loss. I have been having issues for years getting down on my weight. June of last year I finally got to see 179lbs. I was so excited because it has been so long since that low of a number has been on my scale.
Then Life happened. I had to move for my job, which put me living with my mother.... (we won't go there) I never felt like I could cook for myself there. Then my kids came to visit and so did the weight, and it stayed and invited friends. Now I am at 222 and I am 5'5 1/2. This is the heaviest I have ever been. I have trouble shaving my legs, I cant see my feet unless I bend over, I can feel the difference in my body and it is so depressing.
My thyroid is enlarged so now I am on medication for that. I have spent the last 3 months walking and eating right and I gained weight.
So my doctor decided to put me on Phentermine. I started it on 3/10/18. It is the weirdest feeling. I will also be starting the gym.
I have all of my measurements and my weight written down along with pictures
. I am only going to weigh in and do measurements on Saturdays when I first wake up. I hope to meet some great people here and get the support I need.
