Topic: RE: it's the 6th month!!! Share some WOWs
It seems like I haven't posted in forever...but I thought I would chime in with my results!
I don't have pics just yet, but will post them soon! 

So I've lost about 85lbs since surgery and 95lbs all together.
I had all my bllod work done and everything came back A-OK!
Now, if my hair would stop falling out....that would be great.

Something I noticed about my stalls in weightloss....when I wasn't losing
it seemed like I got more comments on how much weight I was losing.
Odd, huh? I figure when the scale isn't moving...my inches are! :D
So everyone keep that in mind~

Congrats to everyone on their weightloss thus far!

Seems everyone here has lost a lot more weight than I have but I do have a major WOW moment to share today.  I saw my endocrinologist for my 6 month follow-up for my diabetes and guess what - I'M NOT DIABETIC ANYMORE.  I still will always have Insulin Resistance (I've had that for 30+ years back when I weighed 115 lb) and I'm what he calls a "background diabetic" meaning if I regain weight the diabetes will probably come back.  But in the meantime, he says if I'm comfortable with it, he's discharging me from his care.
