Nice!!!!

well done!

Hi Rich, how did you lose so much, it wasn't just by dieting, what else did you take? I had my surgery same time and I've lost only 68 lbs. I want to lose more and faster, what's the secret? Linda

Linda, I have stuck to under 900 calories a day, at least 60 grams protein and under 40 grams carbohydrates. I have also gone to the gym as much as possible a minimum of 4 times a week doing 30 minutes cardio and 30 strength each time. As I lose weight I find it easier to keep active. Also I am drinking at least 90 oz of water(flavor enhanced) a day. Other then that I just take a GNC multivitamin, calcium, iron, and biotin daily.

Congrats! Awesome!

Wtg!

I was one of the lucky ones that didn't have much trouble with liquids, I was doing 60 oz after the first week. I then upped it to the 90 oz at about 1 and a half months.
