I'm a 55 year old business owner and married for 31 years. I started on a high-protein low carb program in mid-November. At that time, I weighed in at 289 lbs. My doctor told me in late 2012 that he'd give me one chance to lose weight on my own and if I didn't come down from the 309 lbs that I weighed at that time, he'd strongly advise surgery. During the following year, I hovered around 290-300 but he changed tactics and recommended the supervised program that I'm following now rather than a surgical solution. I'm more than pleased with the results so far.
