When I started I never thought I would get down as much as I did, but now that I am where I am I feel great. No more diabetes, bp in check, can run a longer distance than ten yards, it's more like 3-4 miles at a time. This was done without Gastric Bypass Sugery, which to be honest with you in my opinion is a harder way to lose weight.
Blood Work Results
Fasting Glucose Levels went from 243-80
Fasting A1C went from 10.0 to 5.0
BP went from 146/88 to 110/60
Cholesterol level was always good, now it's like 130
I have lost more than 60" between my waist, abdomen, biceps, calves, hips, and thighs.
Starting date January 13th
