in Success Stories
So non scale victory for me today at the doctor's office, my doctor said I should go off all of my blood pressure and Diabetes medications and we will check labs in three months. Said diet and exercise were making the difference and he wished every patient he saw could have such success! Love, love, love it!

    Oh, that's the BEST sort of news anyone can get!! Congratulations. I know you must feel like a new person. I went off my BP med and it made me feel so great. Please keep up the good work so you won't have to go back on them again. You have conquered some major enemies.

    Aww!!!! *happy dance* GOOD FOR YOU! I don't even know you and I'm so proud!

    I'm a type I diabetic (will never have the option of going off insulin), but I know how hard it is to get to where you are...

    Great job! I am in the process of encouraging my mom and aunt to get off the blood pressure medication and for my mom finally not taking insulin daily upon eating healthier along with more exercise. Its a journey, but all worth it. Keep up the great work!

    Take that diabetes!

    Getting off my blood pressure meds is one of my goals. I was able to get off my "happy pill" in May.

    That is exactly what this is all about. Looking good is a bonus to losing weight, but getting healthy is what we are really aiming for. Great Job!
