Not on a specific diet. Eating very little animal protein and losts of fresh fruits and vegetables plus protein smoothies. Have gone from 261 to 253 in six days. They say to drink half your body weight in oz. of water. Have been doing this. If you drink 17 oz of ice water after eating a meal it will increase fat burning up to 30%. Am not sure what my calorie intake is right now but I think it is around 1500. I want to lose slowly and keep really hydrated so I don't have severe sagging flesh. Not only do I want to be healthy, I want to look decent as well. Had friend who had gastric surgery to lose weight and her flesh just ripples down her body. Not cool. Berlin. 

I guess I just wrote to you two days ago. Want to know how you are doing. Have to admit I was slightly disappointed at end of first week I just missed making 10 pounds. Check your grocery store ck-out lines for a paper magazine called "First". It has the best tips on how to actually lose weight. I had been seeing my family doctor monthly for odd symptoms and no one could find out what was wrong. In this past month's issue of "First" it had an article about a woman who had every symptom I had been complaining about. Turns out I had an infection in my lower GI tract that was making me unbearably fatiqued and other things like horrible bloating, hair loss...etc. Anyway, after eight days on a little known anitbiotic I am for the first time in about 15 months gathering and maintaining physical stamina. I mean I thought I had sofa sores but they just turned out to be cellulite. (That burns, doesn't it?) Anyway, if you can't find first I'll get web site if you want. Everything I'm doing is from this cheap little magazine and I feel finally like a person again. I don't know how long it's been! Walked two days in a row. Keep drinking that water! It helps! Berlin
