I was 304lbs in March of 2018 just before my surgery. Now I am at 234lbs.

My Doctor has taken me off of Losartin, hydrochlorothiazide, and Metformin.

No more prescription medicines. Blood Pressure now 120/80 without meds.

My old shirt size was 5XL. My new shirt size: XL. I feel sooo much better!!!

I am still shrinking. I plan to be around 180lbs, but my regular doctor says I can comfortably go down to my High School graduation weight which was 140lbs.

PRAISE THE LORD!!!!! :D
