Hello and thank you for your response. I lost the weight because I did loose my appetite from all the trouble I am in. Instead of worrying about not eating, I was determined to eat only good things when I was hungry. The conbination did it. I am loosing now and I don't want to however. I maintained the origional loss of 65 and then maintained for two more years. Now I am dropping because of all this mess I am in. The truth is I don't want to fight all the things that are in my life that I need to do. I do not have the energy or the spirit. I don't want more hearings and fights with my family. I don't want any of it any more. ginnie
