    NSV today!!! They used a "normal" adult blood pressure cuff today at the doctor's office! First time since I was 20!

      Sometimes it's the smallest of things that have the biggest impact. Congrats!

      I know! To most it probably seems like nothing but to me, I was so happy! I even asked the nurse, "Is that a regular BP cuff?" She looked at me like I had two heads or something. It made my day though! Ahhhhh, the little things indeed. :)

    Making progress on weight loss, yay! My biggest victory....I am now off of diabetic meds, high cholesterol meds, and my BMI is down to 33 from 41! To me, it's not all scale.
