60 pounds is genuinely great - the Hospira pricing complaint is a tax we all pay for caring about BAC quality. Congrats on hitting that mark.

I saw someone mention they gained the weight back. It's important to remember that these meds can affect your hypothalamus. That can make it harder to maintain your weight loss if you stop abruptly.
