34 lbs. in 3 months

I went to the doctor today. I have lost 34 lbs. in 3 months. I weighed 274 with my shoes on. That is something I would like to comment about. They have a program called Celebrity Fit Club that has been on VH-1 for several years. They have many "b" list celebrities that try to lose weight. This past season they Marsha, from the brady bunch, Tiffany the 90's rock singer, Kimberly from American Idol, and the Brat, a lady rapper. For the men they had Cletus T. Judd, a country comedian, Ross Matthews from the Jay Leno Show, a former athlete, (can't remember his name) and Screech, Derrick Diamond from Saved by the Bell. They would do little challenges like they do on Survivor and other weight loss shows and then they would weigh in each week. No one gets voted off. More than half the program is about the weigh in.
Anyway, I mention this because when they would do weigh ins, they would always be wearing different outfits. The funniest was when they were at a ski resort and when they weighed in, some of the girls weighed in with a heavy vest and Ug boots. That had to be the silliest thing to do. Then they would get all depressed because they didn't lose as much as they thought, or they would gain weight. The boots and vest alone probably added at least 3 lbs.! It was just so funny. When I was in TOPS years ago we would sometimes take off our shirts so we could weigh less.
But I have always tried to wear the same shoes when I weigh in and I don't wear heavy clothes so the weight total is about right.
I have decided to try the pills one more month and then try to go a few months without them and see if I can maintain my weight. This way I can give my body a break and if I have to, I can go back on the medicine. They don't want you to be on it more than 2 years straight. I don't know if there is a limit of back and forth or not. I will just take it one day at a time. I feel really good now. I need to get out and do some walking. I think I would feel even better. We will see what happens.
