I visited the Doctor this week. It is a lot more fun to see him when making this kind of progress. I am down 81 pounds so far. Doc was shaking my hand, congratulating me, and really encouraged me. My blood pressure was 112/70 and heart rate was 44 beats per minute with no medication for several months now. I am no longer diabetic. I am really enjoying having the ability to participate in life so much more. Next doctor visit will be in late September.
