There is no story to create - I was fat, and a borderline diabetic with hypertension and high cholesterol.  Since my last visit to the physician, my diabetes is normal but my blood pressure and cholesterol were still present.  I have not lost too much weight in the past 2 years since my surgery.  My story is not very encouraging but it is true.
