kandywolf 161 Posted October 18, 2018 1 year ago today, I made a decision to change my life. And what a life changer or has been! I was diabetic on 2 different Mixed diabetic meds, so basically 4. Have gotten my A1C to 5.0 from 7.2. And no longer need any diabetes medication. Down to 1 high blood pressure pill instead of 2. 1 cholesterol pill instead of 2. And my triglycerides were over 600 are now 95. I did not do this for vanity, I did it for me, my health and my family. I want to live to watch my nieces and nephews grow up. I was in a bad place for a long time, and food was my outlet, my comforter. My shattered world is still wounded (and always will be) but not broken! The pics are on top, the left, me at my highest, me before my surgery, me at the beginning of the year and the pic below them was taken a few weeks ago. It’s a daily struggle, but it was worth it! Thank you for all of your love and support and ty to my cheerleaders, who have been with me every step of the way. 3 4 ProudGrammy, Ed_NW, Neversaynever and 4 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
