OK, I just weighed myself.. I have been proud of the fact, that even though I know I gained weight since DH passed, I stayed under 200. My buttons are poppin alright, but it isn't from pride anymore.

My health has been excellent, to spite the weight gain and that's why I didn't bother to jump on the scale. My BP is a bit higher this past year - still normal, but higher. I must lose 20 lbs yesterday, or my health may go to pot. I love to eat and can't do a lot of exercise, so how do I do it?

It's not that I eat a lot, but I guess it's what I eat. Cutting out my daily snack of chocolate chip cookies will have to stop..OH NO, I may die!!! Those cookies may be the whole problem! What else can I do?

I've been doing more exercises than I have ever done, since MS has taken over my body and I don't want to overdo. I'm serious about the 20 lbs ASAP. I guess the old starvation diet is the only way. I'm not good at especially laid out diets and I know I wouldn't stick to it.

I wonder if there is a magic pill to help. I've heard about them...you know, "just take this pill and you don't have to diet"? Sure, huh?

HELP!!!
