Hello all, My name is Joe, I am 44yrs. old and I am a police officer from Tennessee. I have had a life long battle with my weight. I have been up and down so many times I have a closet full of different size uniforms.About 5 years ago I went to a doctor and started taking medication to help me loose weight. I lost 92lbs. in about 5 months, but I did not change my life style so I gained it all back plus some. I recently returned to the doctor and was told that I had to loose weight for my health, so I said thats it NO MORE. I was told that I was diabetic and that my tryclyserites (Spelling) were in the 500 range, way to high. The doctor put me on phentermine and I changed my life style. That was 2months ago, I have lost 50lbs.and I feel awsome. my starting weight was 344 and I now weigh 294. My goal is around 220lbs.I will make it not just for me for my family. I have a beautiful of 16yrs. and 2 great kids.I want to live as long and healthy a life as I possibly can.
