lash44 313 Posted July 26, 2011 Received great news today, my six month blood work came back excellent. Diabetes, gout, high cholesterol, blood pressure and prostate problems are gone or within normal limits. All these ailments I was taking meds for on a daily basis, some two and three times a day. 85 lbs. down in six months. It seems the body weight is leveling off at 190. For the last few weeks, I been floating between 190 and 195. I am a approaching 60 years old this fall, and this is the greatest gift I can get. One friend (who had the bypass in 2001) mentioned I added ten to fifteen years to my life. So happy, I am shedding a few tears (in high spirits). Can't wait until the wife get home to share the news with her. I guess we will Celebrate, pray first then rejoice. Continued thanks, Lash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
