    Congrats :heart: I just went on blood Pressure med in July but am already anxious to get off of them. This group has some great weight losses.

    Can anyone tell me how to add my ticker and individual goals to my posts? Is there some place to store them on the site or do I need to put it in a document somewhere else and paste each post?

    Thanks so much for the help and inspiration. :smile:

    I hope you are going to celebrate this big time. This deserves a new outfit, a massage, a weekend away ... someone else making dinner ... or maybe just a big hug from someone you love. (I would take all of them myself after losing that much weight and improving my health so much)

    I thank you for being such a great inspiration !!! And congratulations on your well earned success.

    I'm taking my wife, son, & daughter-in-law, and granddaughter out for Mexican food at our favorite Mexican restaurant tonight aftermy 45 minutes on the treadmill and 30 minutes on the weight machines. That way I can enjoy the food (and Margaritas) without seriously compromising my net calories for the day. Besides, it doesn't hurt to zig-zag my calories once in awhile to let my metabolism know it is still needed. LOL!

    Great news! I'm hoping for the same in about a week I will be seeing my cardiologist on Monday, Oct. 12. I hoping he tells me to bag the blood pressure meds. Last time I saw him I was at 312 lbs and now I'm at 274 lbs. I usually take my blood pressure readings on those machines at the stores. I hope they are reliable because my readings have been normal!!!
