Also, please state what kind of surgery you had and when you had it. Thanks.

The title makes no sense at all, sorry for that! A girlfriend of mine got pregnant two years ago and she gained 85 pounds and became 200something pounds. Since then she has shed all of her pregnancy weight and is well below her pre-pregnancy weight and is a size 2 when she was a size 10. She says she didn't diet or exercise at all. She never breast fed, she was just very much involved with her son and running around with him that she shed the weight.

Do you think this is believable ?

A fellow was reading the paper one day lamenting the fact that his doctor has ordered him to lose 75 pounds. Next thing he sees is an advertisement for a guaranteed weight loss program. "Guaranteed like heck," he thinks to himself. "But lets see what they think they can do." He calls them on the phone and subscribes to the 3 day, 10 LB weight loss program.

The next day there comes a knock at his door, and when he answers, there stands before him a voluptuous, athletic 19 year old babe dressed in nothing but a pair of Nikes and a sign hanging around her neck. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you can have me." Without a second thought he takes off after her. A few miles later, huffing and puffing, he finally catches her and has his way with her. After they are through he kisses the girl one last time and thinks to himself with a nod, "I like the way this company does business."
For the next two days, the same girl shows up and the same thing happens each time. On the fourth day, he weigh himself and, sure enough, he has lost 10 pounds.

Deciding that he likes his somewhat more slender physique, not to mention the method of treatment, he calls the company back and subscribes to their 5 day, 20 LB weight loss program. He thinks that losing 20 pounds in only 5 days seems like a lot, but he is intrigued by what their workout schedule might be like this time.

As expected, the next day there comes a knock at his door. When he answers it there stands a 22 year old knockout dressed in nothing but a pair of Reeboks and a sign hanging around her neck. She is simply stunning, the most beautiful woman he has ever seen. She introduces herself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads, "If you can catch me, you can have me." He's out the door like a shot.
This gal is in excellent shape and it takes a while to catch her. But when he does, it is worth every cramp and wheeze. She is wonderful, the best he has ever had. He is really looking forward to the next four days... For the next four days, the same girl shows up and the same thing happens each time, much to his delight. On the sixth day, he weighs himself and, unbelievably, he has lost another 20 pounds.

I love this company, he thinks to himself, "I never knew losing weight could be so easy and so much fun." Feeling much better about himself, he decides to go for broke and subscribe to the company's 7 day, 50 pound weight loss program. "Are you sure, sir?" Asks the representative on the phone. "This is our most vigorous program." "Absolutely," says he, "I love your program. Haven't felt this good in years!"
The next day there comes a knock at his door and he enthusiastically answers it. There stands before him a 200 pound perfect specimen of a man dressed in nothing but racing spikes and a sign around his neck. He introduces himself as a representative of the weight loss company. The sign reads, "If I can catch you, I can have you."

I had an abortion a year ago for safety reasons and have recently begun to notice my clothes have gotten a little baggy. I didn't gain much weight from my pregnancy, only about 10 pounds, and I'm wondering if this has ever happened to anyone else or what it might be?

I am trying to loose weight, and I am thinking of rewarding myself with something nice (non-food related) at certain points in my weight loss journey. I am eating smaller, more frequent portions. I am working on increasing healthy food intake and exercise, and decreasing junk. (I have eliminated soda-diet and non-diet). My exercise, for now, will mostly consist of walking.

Start Weight-180 lbs
Goal 1-162 lbs
Goal 2- 146 lbs
Goal 3- 131 lbs
Goal 4- 120 lbs

Each goal is basically a 10% weight loss goal. However, the difference between goals 3 and 4 are less than 10%. If I went with the 10% goal I would be at 118 lbs.

I may stop at goal 3 though, or somewhere between goals 3 and 4.

How long would it take to reach each goal simply using a diet of more whole grains, less fried foods, more greens, more water, and gradually working up an exercise routine? No fancy programs (with the exception of Weight Watchers to help make quick and easy choices).

Are these realistic weight loss goals to have?
I am 17 years old.

I cut out sugary beverages-going from up to 5,000 calories a week (sometimes more) in beverages to drinking only water and skim milk.

That is about an average of 714 calories less per week. I have not changed my diet much in any other way. I am working on slowly making other modifications to my diet and exercise habits.

I am on SSI and receive Medicaid. I am needing to have weight loss surgery and the only insurance I have is Medicaid. Does anyone know if there are doctors in the Dallas/fort worth or even east texas area that will accept Medicaid for the gastric bypass surgery?

I was reading Dr. Barnard's book about becoming totally vegan and then eating all the good carbs all you want. But everything else seems to indicate you need to eat very few carbs and plenty of lean meats, all in small portions. What's the deal? I am on the high end of normal, bordering pre-diabetes (after gestational diabetes). Trying to stay "normal."

I had my baby two months ago, but during pregnancy I gained about 20 kilos. I have managed to lose about 8 of them. Can I go on a diet to lose the rest of the kilos, or is it too early, and I must wait for a couple of months?
