hey sorry didnt see your post! did you post in the newcomers section? the groups are actually "teams" that are doing a 5 pound 2 week challenge right now which ends this friday. a new one should be starting next week if you would like to join. just keep an eye out for the sign up post.

welcome by the way!
 
Thank you for your responses. I did post in the newcomers section too..I've been posting everywhere lately demanding attention like a 3 year old! LOL! I am excited to hear that new 5-lb clubs will be starting soon. I am anxious to join one. Anyone else see the toenail fungus ads up above where we type? If that's not an appetite killer, I don't know WHAT is, lol. I look forward to supporting you all through the changes you are making. Love and hugs, j

Hi, I was on it (10mg) for a total of 3 weeks and lost 5lb, I've lost 2 lb since that time but I had to suspend using Meridia until February. I have a Monarc Subfacial Hammock operation (you can look it up) Jan 4, and you can't be on Meridia for a period before/after the operation. My doctor did increase my thyroid medication so I'm slowly losing but not as fast as with Meridia.

You still have to watch what type of foods you eat and exercise but I always told myself that if I could just get below 200lb I would be excited and encouraged to continue. Well, I'm not there yet, although seeing fewer than 225lb was encouraging.

Keep me posted on how you're doing.
