Hello! My name is Melissa. Been overweight all my life. Up and down. Done every diet out there. Lost the most with WW about 10 years ago, but weight has gone crazy after divorce. Finally stepped on the scale and saw 300. I knew something had to be done. I'm 30 and single. Have had no one worth anything even interested since my divorce and well, I don't blame them!

Last week I started a Protein Sparing Modified Fast (PSMF) under a doctors super vision. It is 5 nutritional supplements a day. I believe they are made by a company called Healthwise. Anyway, it is very low calorie (500-800) and high protein. You do go into ketosis.

First week i lost 6.7 lbs. Pretty pleased with this. I love that I have to go to a doctor every week and be held accountable by someone.

I am trying to find a buddy who is doing something similar. Someone I can check in with and we can share experiences. Most of the PSMF things I have been able to find online have been done by body builders. Which I certainly am not!!!
