annwhiteside2000 asked:


I had a baby (baby #3) 6 months ago. I am 35 yrs old. I have tried exercise, diets and I always end up quitting. I just don’t have the time, energy, willpower, etc. I know it would be best for me to lose about 20lbs, but at this rate, I know I will not. I **** how I look and feel, it is affecting my emotions and my attitude towards alot of things. I want to know if 20lbs weight loss is enough for a doctor to normally prescribe a prescription for it. Does anyone know?

The Weight Loss Cure book advises that one take injections of hCG hormone. Is it safe?

ThatGirl asked:


I recently bought Kevin Trudeau’s The Weight Loss Cure They Don’t Want You to Know About. In it, he cites studies from the 1950’s that say that taking daily injections of the hormone hCG (125-250mg) and eating a 500 calorie a day diet is a safe way to lose weight and stop food cravings.

I am a diabetic, so I know that any hormone can be life changing and can effect the whole body. Is there anyone who has used this regimen or otherwise knows about this hormone and would recommend it?

Does anyone happen to know how a rescent surgery slows down weight loss ?

I went to a local weight loss center and the Dr there prescribed these pills for me. I’m taking 50 mg topamax per day and a water pill. I’ve lost 14 lbs in 6 weeks (YEAH!!) but starting to worry about side effects and getting off the medication. Also concerned about what my “real” Dr will say. Comments?? Suggestions??

NO WISECRACKS PLEASE***********

I am starting a new weight loss plan and I was wondering if there is someplace in the Bible that talks about weight loss and how a persons self image should be. I know gluttony is one of the seven deadly sins, but that is about all I can remember right now
