I just got out of my 6 month visit (even though i am currently at 6 1/2 months out).  My BP went from 140/90 to 118/60, my resting HR was way down, and my cholesterol both good and bad was spot on.  My offiical Dr.'s office scale loss was 179 lbs.  The other news (not necessarily bad news) was my blood sugar was low and my B-12 was low, so I got a prescription for vitamins and snickers (j/k).  Overall, i feel pretty great about the experience so far, here's to the next 6 months....

Thanks again to everybody on this board, it has been a great ride so far and I'm thankful for the support of this group.
Where are we going??  And why am I in this handbasket??

right now.  somewhere.  somebody is working harder than you.

Sounds like life is good in ******* Georgia.
The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking....... If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.

 Wow, almost 180 lbs. in just 6 months???        Not bad for a wookie!   


   How far now to goal?

my original goal was 225, I'm right at 250 now, i think i can make it to 200.  The goal the Dr.'s office is using is 164, which is ridiculous given my body type and workouts etc.

179# and still that ugly face.  Some of us got better looking with the weight loss.  LOL

Congrats on the 6 month check up your Dr probably thinks you are one of his stars.  Keep being a loser it's great.
