Today I went to the Dr for 2 week after sugery visit.  He took me off the blood preasure med today.  My BP was 106 over 79.  Yippee!
Last week I got off the diabeties med because my BS (blood sugar) level was getting down into the upper 60's at times.  Now it runs 107 to 140.

It just keeps getting better!

Next I need to drop the colesteral and anti depresents.  I'm now down 41 lbs in the last month.  I still haven't figured out how to update the ticker below.  Anybody want to give me a clue?

 

Some days its just not worth waking up and chewing through the leather straps

Congratulations on getting off the BP and diabetes meds.  My doc had me toss my Lipitor the day of my surgery!  On the anti depressants make sure they are not time release.  You want to make sure those are working with the emotional roller coaster WLS can put you on.  Trust me.  Time released won't do much good in a pouch.  On ticker click on it and that will take you back to tickerfactory and go from there to update.

Awesome!

I bet you drop the cholestrol before long, too, they took me off about 3 months after surgery.
