Close Obesity

I have struggled with my weight for over 15 years. At 5'1", and around 200 lbs, I am at my heaviest ever. I am lethargic, self-conscious and short of breath. I worry I may never change. I have been successful with Weight Watchers in the past, losing 35 lbs, and with Medi-Fast, losing almost 50 lbs., but regained all and more. I feel I must do something before my health really suffers.

Treatments

Cycling Not Working

I was in such bad shape when I began, I could not stay on the bike for long, became discouraged and quit.

Physical Exercise Working / Worked

It did help a lot....when I was still doing it. Now I'm so heavy that walking to the mailbox is a real work out for me.

Topamax Not Working

Severe side effects.

Weight Watchers Working / Worked

Worked well, but I quit b/c I hated the meetings.

Medifast Working / Worked

Worked beautifully..sort of. I lost a good deal of weight quickly and felt okay. It was expensive at about $400 a month. The "food" was absolutely horrible, and eventually, I just couldn't stand eating it anymore. Regained weight quickly
