I've been on therapy for about 6 months and have lost ~16 pounds. Still have a long way to go.
The two main reasons are more energy (been walking some) and it's easier to reliably eat breakfast (used to feel like such crap in the morning, that I always skipped breakfast).
One big change is that I am able to push myself physically much harder than I could before therapy, without being totally exhausted for the next 48 hours. But just because I can push myself harder, doesn't mean I've gotten into the habit of doing so on a regular basis.
EDIT: Oh, and I should add that the only "diety" type stuff I've been doing is trying to walk 20 min/day, avoid sweets, and take a multivitamin, B12, and D pill with breakfast every morning.

[quote="nobody"]Cutting calories doesn't work because I get migraines and then get so hungry that I end up over-eating./quote]
Cut calories by eating lower calorie foods, but keep the volume of food the same so as to avoid the hunger/migraines. In other words don't eat less, just eat better!
