Lost close to 30 lbs. the body fat has slowly dropped to 33% diabetes and hypertension and high cholesteral never ever went a way. Constant nausea vomiting getting stuck and not being able to eat some day. My wife had here revision done in April 2013 losing 95 pounds so proud of her. Now it's my turn.
