up dates
I am about 2 weeks away from my year anniversary , i had my labs done and everything is great and i only take a multi vitamin each day .........I have lost 70 lbs ,,,,,,, i wore a titration cpap for a week and they measured my pressure and while i still need it ( crapballs) they will be lowering my pressure from 8 to 6 , so i feel like im on my way to getting rid of it , i did not require another sleep study to get this done !! Dr G ordered it and the machine was free !! I have been so lucky to have had not one complication , i truly feel it is because i followed exactly what he told me to do and my own determination to make this work for me ,,,,And the support i get here and from my family and friends...

Hi, Luanne.
Congratulations on reaching your one-year anniversary (almost). You've made wonderful progress, and it's so true that the key is following instructions to the letter. I bet you'll be able to get rid of your CPAP in no time, and when you do, I hope you can give it to OkieChic, so she can pass it on to someone who needs one but cannot afford one.
Keep up the good work.
Blessings,
Mary Lou Ann :)

Yay! You'll be off the cpap in no time....but in the meantime, I bet the the restorative sleep is helping your weight loss. Health is such a complicated thing.
And YOU have worked so hard for this-the rules are simple, following them not so simple....Props to you!
