I don't mean to be a negative Nancy but a dietician is suggesting those highly processed meals?

I used to eat WW, HC or LC meals for lunch because they were quick and easy.  But then I realized how awful they are for you and have moved away from them.

First I am not crazy,lol. I have been doing the Apple cider vinegar thing with Garcinia. I do the vinegar, grapefruit juice and honey at night before bed. I also take two garcinia pills once before dinner. I have been doing this since fall and have lost 56 pounds. I did not even watch what I ate but did not eat chocolate or sweets. That is a miracle for me. I also did not exercise because I have neuropathy and benign essential tremors. I did buy device that allows me to peddle sitting anywhere. Now if I would just use it. There are different recipes online like honey, lemon, vinegar and warm water. Some call for twice a day some once a day. Good luck!!!

 You'd have gotten exactly the same results without the Apple Cider VinegarGrapefruit Juice Honey Garcinia concoctions. 

Eliminating most sugar is what did it.  Insulin is a pretty potent hormone.

@Kat mom I have heard others talk about doing the apple cider vinegar and how effective it has been for them.   I have not done that, so can't speak from experience.

@Norriesgirls Anything new to update us on since starting this?

This is kind of a late reply. I am still doing the Apple cider vinegar and garcinia with luck. I did switch to the pill version which is the vinegar and garcinia. The vinegar was bothering my stomach. It has slowed down but I am at 75 pounds lost. Now if I could get my son find my thinner clothing, lol. I have to keep pulling up my pants. I have not weighed this since 1987. The weird part is that I seem to lose it in different parts than what I used to do. An example is that I have skinny elbows and my hand fits around my rib cage at the bottom. Maybe I didn't pay attention before. I have some more to lose but slow is good.

I lost 85 pounds in 2013, and never regained, BUT my world took a drastically sad turn in 2014, and never fully straightened out.

So, same scale weight, but the return of what I have come to think of as a “STRESS GUT”. I was pretty happy with my body shape after the major loss, but that doggone Stress Gut has taken some of the fun out of my original success.

Now, I’ve added some PURE FUN back into my activities, that was temporarily missing.

Hoping that helps me dispose of the last 20-25 that never went away when the dark clouds hit.

I have now lost 80 pounds. My son won't dig out my smaller clothing so at home I have yoga pants from here that keep falling down. Lol.

@Kat mom That is M-A-R-V-E-L-O-U-S! You are an inspiration to anyone who deals with weight challenges. Keep it up! And please keep letting us know how things are going with you. 

Enjoy shopping for new clothes, 'cuz that is the fun part after all your hard work.
