    Mrs. Hasbeen has lost 40 lbs. (steroid weight) over the past 6 months on the "Weigh Down" program, based on the book.

    I've lost 15 lbs. over the past 3 months going to the gym 5 days per week, doing nothing but cardio vascular stuff for an hour. I started at 295 and am down to 280. My goal is to get under 250 by my next birthday. I ain't been under 250 since I was 19. :(

    Do tell. I've gained about 20 lbs from being on Prednisone for the last year and a half for sinus/allergy/asthma crap that I can't get over. I blowed up like a tick. What's this "weigh down" you speak of?

    Yeah, me too...but the weight seems to have rearranged itself on my body. I wish it would stop doing that.

    yep, that's exactly what it's called. Want to trim down a little, but most importantly i have to make sure i stay the same weight that allowed me to fit into my wedding dress.

    There is an additional book based upon the Atkins diet. It involves flax oils and some other suppliments. You can eat limited amounts of fruit and the combination of vegies, fruit and proteins are important. You also drink 2 liters a day of watered down cranberry juioce concentrate. The concept is your liver is the fat burning center and you detoxifie the liver with the juice and suppliments. Three tablets of milk thistle a day is also part ot the plan. Nancy lost over 5 #'s the first week. I started today. You pee constantly.

    I'm sorry, Muff. Prednisone is pretty good for what ails ya, but it does carry a price. That's the same steroid that blew Mrs. Hasbeen up, too.
