6 Month Doctor Visit

I was 6 months on 6/14 but my appt.was today. Got my bloodwork done last week. My clhoesterol and trigycerites are wayyy down, Everything else is great. My BMI down from 32 to 21. My body fat % down from 52% to 35%. I only had 55 lbs. to lose but it was all in my abdomen in a dangeroius place. i am only 5 lbs. from my doctor's goal for me. He said it is very hard to maintain a steady weight loss when you are this close to goal. He said if I can eat more, I will reach my goal faster. He also said to increase my treadmill interval training he gave me to at least 5 days a week. I made an appt. with the NUT for the 24th to go over my maintenance guidleines! I feel sooo good. Thank you God!

You are amazing!!! Please tell me your story. I see you are close to my age. Did you have a lot of health problems that you decided to have the sleeve? I am having a hard time deciding if this is for me. I have many health problems and at my age it is scary. I will not get better if I don't do something,
