rubyspring 1 Posted September 19, 2011 and turning 60 on Thursday. Never would have thought I would be here when I walked into my PCP's office 4 months ago and he said that I either lose weight or start on insulin for my diabetes. Boy did that light a fire under me. Sleeved on Aug. 1 and couldn't be more satisfied with my decision. Have stopped 3 prescriptions and the cholesterol meds will go in 2 - 5 months. I've lost inches in most places. I started measuring early in the process but became depressed when my thigh measurement was what my waist size was when I was 13, and I was overweight even back then. SO I just measure progress by changes in clothes sizes. A little sad my "girls" are down 2 cup sizes and a bit frustrated that the fat seems to be hanging on in my waist. I tell myself I just need to be patient. Just started on raw veggies a few days ago, I sure missed them. Miss my fruits, but doc says those are off limits until I reach goal, oh well:( Wishing all of you the best as you proceed on your journey. thanks for being here.
