Today is the 2 year anniversary of my weight loss adventure. Grand total weight loss: 185.6 lbs. From a size 36 to a 14/16. Blood pressure from 160/100ish to 100/60 (no meds). A1C from 10+ to 6.2 and insulin intake from 900+ units a day to 60. My goal weight is under 25lbs away.

I really am a new person. I have a different body, different mind, different soul. I couldn't have done it without the love and support of my family and friends (pals included). Thank you for everything.

    Excellent story. You'll be thrilled when your A1C drops under 6. Mine is currently at 5.8 and hoping watching my carbs and sugar will result in better blood work next time.
