Blood test results

As promised I am posting my Physical results. Many of my friends on MFP know that I have been on this journey since Jan 2010 with a starting weight of 291. I received a harsh blow of reality when I went in for surgery on Dec. 30th 2009 and weighed 291 with only a hospital gown on. As of that point we decided to change our lives and make a new and better one for ourselves. As of last Friday I had lost 113lbs based on the Dr's scale, and my husband has lost over 202lbs. I know that with out his support and encouragement that I would be having a second knee surgery and facing knee replacement within the next few years.

My blood test comparisions were considerable better this time, but not as good as expected. I have more work to do and will continue to do what I need to, to become healthy and gain more years to my life, so that I can enjoy my family, husband and old age.
