Major thing for me. I’ve been having pretty bad dizzy spells the last couple of weeks whenever I stood up or bent over. I finally went to my Dr. and it turns out I’ve lost so much weight that my blood pressure had dropped to 98/52! I’ve been taking medicine for years. She cut my dose in half and we are checking to see if I even need it anymore. She was actually VERY happy for me. From 284 to 236. I have a ways to go but a major breakthrough for me. Thanks to all of you for your support 0cus8ze6ggm2.jpeg

    You're amazing and inspiring! Just what I needed to read today. Thanks and well done. 😀

    By the way, your story made me tear up. I'm gonna blame it on allergies.
