Guest guest Posted May 19, 2001 Report Share Posted May 19, 2001 Can I ask how long your common channel is, and why you think (and your doc) you are losing slowly?

Guest guest Posted May 20, 2001 Report Share Posted May 20, 2001 - Congrats. That is great-50 pounds. You are not losing slowly. That is 12-15 pounds a month. Healthy. I will complete my 6 months at the end of May and I am down 79 pounds. I am thrilled and you will be there to. Also, I found that my 4th and 5th months had me losing more than my 2-3 months. Good luck and good health. Please share your bloodwork with me. Also, I put together my food log for many days and gave it to and she analyzed it which helped alot.
