That is great!!! My father had a quadruple bypass and after he had it, he felt so much better, he had gotten used to not feeling good and tiring so easily. Now that you had that and have taken off quite a bit of weight, I can hear the Rocky tune playing!!

87 pounds in a month that's amazing

Sorry, it is 36 pounds in a month. I use the 287 as my highest weight to keep me motivated.

Over the last 10 years I had lost in the neighborhood of 50 + pounds, but I still had to have a triple bypass 2 years ago (and my bad cholesterol was only 75) and my diabetes was ragingly worse. I was on 90 units of Levimir (long acting insulin) a day and between 20-30 units of Novalog (fast acting insulin) a day., as well as 2000 mg. of Glucophage.

So, even though I was no longer morbidly obese (287). I decided to have the surgery. I know longer use Glucophage and only 5-10 units of insulin a day. THAT IS A 90-95% IMPROVEMENT ON INSULIN ALONE AND 100% ON GLUCOPHAGE.

So the surgery did what I wanted already.
