Well, I've been overweight pretty much all my life. I tried every diet in the book, and nothing ever seemed to work. Now my doc has me on Xenical and Metformin, and I've lost 10 lbs. in the last two weeks. Thats the most I've ever lost in my life, so I'm actually enthusiastic about trying to lose the weight this time, rather then just accepting that I never will. I've been eating veggie omlets with salsa for breakfast, salads for lunch, then grilled meat and roasted veggies for dinner these last few days. I just want to get healthier is all, and my town is tiny, so I figured I'd check the web for support groups and came across this place.

Hi Brytax

Welcome

Congrats on the 10 lb loss. What kind of plan are you following? calories, carbs, WW, etc.?

I don't really have a plan, per say, just more fruits and veggies, and cutting out all the processed sugars and carbs.

Well, you're off to a roaring start, that's wonderful.
You'll find odds and ends of support in the "Support" forum. Groups in the "Support Groups" forum. You'll probably enjoy the "Nutrition" forums.
