Default Hello out there!!

Hi all I found this forum searching for weightloss forums. I am currently on a mission to lose 111 pounds. My Name is Kerry and I am from Illinois. I low carbed, lost and got to goal and then stopped smoking...and I gained, and gained, and gained. I went to the docter who put me on phentermine, which started working ...and stopped almost as fast...I got high blood pressure from it. so much for that!! So about a year and a half ago I went to the docter and we decided I had a hiatal hernia, every time I bent over I got stuck...so the goal was to lose weight...it never got lost. I tried and tried, I gained and gained, I knew something was wrong but getting anyone to listen...a joke. Long story short I had a very large mass in my stomach, crushing my adrenal gland and kidney. All of that is out and I am losing weight again. I can not do low carb as I now only have 1 kidney, so I am feeling like a fish out of water and just trying to do the best I can, I have to focus on no more than -2 pounds a week. So I'm looking for inspiration and good fighting people here, battling the same war.

Hi Kerry, and So glad you found your problem and got it taken care of. Hope you are able to find a plan that is right for you and that you can live with. Perhaps your doctor could help advise you??
