So far this has been the best life choice I have ever made...my diabetes, high blood pressure is pretty much gone. I've stopped taken my Meds. I'm down to 215lbs from 257lbs. I put my cpap machine in the closet. I've been going to the gym 2 times a day Monday to Friday 30-45 min on the elliptical machine each visit. My lovely wife is loving the new thinner me ;0) I can't wait to get to my goal weight of 180lbs
