Great new from the Doctor!!
WOW !! That’s all I can say ... WOW !! I would never have imagined how having the Realize band operation would change my life so dramatically!! In just a little under 6 months, my life has changed for the better.
Prior to January 29, 2008: I was a biscuit over 400 pounds, and (for about the last 5 years) I have been on 4 medications
Diovan HCT 160 / 25 mg (High Blood Pressure)
Lipitor 20 mg (High Cholesterol)
Coreg / Norvasc 20 mg (Hypertension)
Carvedilol 12.5 mg (Beta Blocker)
Yesterday, for the first time since 2002, I was able to be weighed on my Doctor’s “regulation” scale, with many pounds to spare!! My total loss is 110 pounds !!
Also, as of yesterday, I am officially off all my meds!! The Doctor was honest and said there is a slight chance I may need to go back to either Lipitor or Diovan (or both), but she says she’s doubts it. She is very satisfied with my progress.
I need to THANK everyone on the boards!! If it weren’t for all the posts, insight, and personal responses, I don’t think I would have gotten this far this soon!!
Bless you all!!
