So today (7/19/2010) is my 3 month Surgiversary. 

On this scale this morning I was at 218 Lbs.  that's a 69 lb loss from my highest weight.  I have another 25 lbs to go to hit my goal.  But to be honest, if I did not loose another pound, I would be so satisfied of what I've achieved. 

I am down to only one (1) blood pressure medication, which I am weening off, NO diabetes medications and my blood sugar is consistently 85 -90, no sleep apnea and NO CPAP machine. 

To say that 3 months ago was a life changing event is a gross understatement.   I feel and look better than I have in years!

The only downside, is it is costing me some money to buy a whole new wardrobe...but then again, it is fun shopping in the "regular" sizes and even being able to find stuff on the Sales racks.

I thank God for this great blessing.  I thank my wife who has been so supportive.  I thank Dr Kemmeter and the team at Grand Health Partners!
Eating junk food and CRAP is not a reward...it's a punishment...
  it's a DEATH sentence...Reward yourself with Good Health!
Highest Weight: 287 Lbs-January 2010; Reached Goal 195 Lbs - Dec 2010 
Total Lost: 92 Lbs;  Completed FULL MARATHON (26.2 Miles) 10-16-2011

It is an amazing ride isn't it?  Being of those med is really such a great reward unto itself.  Congratulations on your hard work and deserved success!
