I am a 6'2" Male, was 305 pounds and in my mid 50's.
I have been heavy my entire life, been doing one kind of diet or another most of my adult life and in the late 90's was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes.
I went to the schools as directed by my doctors, I studied diabetes and I went on even more restrictive diets. But my weight stayed right around 300.
In the 90’s I even went on the Optifast medically supervised program where I did not eat anything for 3 months, just the liquid drinks. And in 3 months got down to 240 lbs. but as soon as I started eating my weight came right back on.
Where I worked in Washougal Washington we had a contest made up of 5-person teams and the team that lost the most won. Well my team came in second out of 7 teams and I had lost the most on our team, about 25 lbs. in 3 months.
I started at over 300 got down to about 280 while doing a very restrictive LOW Fat, Low Carb, Low calorie diet. But that was not sustainable and again, as soon as I started eating my weight came right back.
When I was first diagnosed as a Diabetic I went on their low fat, low calorie diet but my weight stayed the same and my blood sugar started climbing.
So then I started studying diabetes, nutrition, health, supplements and so on and got my Diabetes under control, but not my weight.
I had actually given up on diets for weight loss and was eating a very restrictive diet just to help control my Diabetes.
Then I found this Dr Simeons hCG Protocol, which in my case has been a life saver.
I have no back pain, no leg or knee pains; I have much more energy and stamina and even have a Love Life again.
This has been an amazing journey which is not over for me as I will get down to my goal BMI weight of 165-175 lbs.
