My Mom's trying to lose weight. Envious of my Dad's success, she's undergoing the very same weight loss program. She's also taking some medications to help her out. Her doctor gave her diet pills that work wonders for her. Only in her second month, she has lost weight considerably. I'm sure it's not only for looks she's doing this. She also wants a healthier lifestyle. Reaching her ideal weight is only the first step. Eating healthier and keeping her weight is the ultimate goal.
