You can do this, Meg. It's a lifestyle change and when you're committed to the change, the weight will come off and stay off. I know this from experience.

Hi,
I lost close to 150 lbs doing low carb and but for my new condition would still be doing it, it took me off all my meds, B/P insulin, and all my labs were normal living that lifestyle, and the exercise program that worked best for me at that time was a treadmill, I started out at 5 minutes once a day at about .5 mph and increased very slowly each day, letting my body tell me when to stop and before the killer fusion I was up to 2 hours at 4 mph and it took me close to 2 years to get there but it worked for me, I took my pain meds each day an hour before beginning! You of course must chose what works for you but I had done it all and did not want gastric bypass or even a lapband and I never felt better in my life, being on a natural high, and I exercised 6 days a week 90 % of the time! I wish you well, now i don't diet because I never get hungry and forget to eat and exercise is out of the question, I do well to walk across the room without falling!
