not as losing weight. If you have access to a dietician through your doc, you can work on food plans that are yummy, filling and will aid you in your goals.

Happy New Year! I lost 40 pounds just by capping carbs and protein for the past 6 months. I feel much better and my clothes don't pinch and bind.
