I'm off...

...my blood pressure medicine!  My pcp said I no longer need to take my bp meds! YEAH!!! He did say that I should keep track of the bp for awhile to make sure that it is still in a good range. Not a problem for me. 2 less pills to take a day! I'm so excited. When he came into the office he said, "you have lost weight" and then looked on the laptop and said," you have lost a lot of weight" I felt soooo goood!  I have to go early tomorrow to have a metabolic panel done. He even said they may have to change my synthroid dosage. He'll know after the lab work comes back. I love this band! I'm soo glad to have it!

Carol, that is great news! And a great WOW moment, when your Dr can see, and tells you how much you have accomplished.   

Thanks Lisa, it really was a WOW moment. It seems like I'm getting a few WOW moments weekly.

Congrats!!!!  You HAVE lost alot of weight and you should be very proud of it!!!

Thanks Kim, I am proud because now I know this weight is not coming back. I've got the band! It's was an  even better WOW moment when my daughter said she was proud of me for sticking to it and losing the weight.

congrats!!  how exciting!! this is all very motivating!  i do not have any health issues yet but i know that going on at this weight it was coming! 

Thanks Karey, these are the kinds of things I read about that other people had that kept me focused. Be glad that you don't have the health issues, just know that you will be healthier.

You go girl..what good news..you are doing so good..you deserved that compliment..so strut your stuff  .

Thanks Marilyn, I feel so much better.  I don't want to strut too much, I don't want to get a swelled head!
