Congratulatiions on your NSV! (Non-scale victory). That is a major accomplishment! I'm off my diabetic medicine as well. It is so nice to periodically check my blood and it's within the range it should be in.

Be proud of yourself! That is awesome!

I total get this one as my Mother is very obese and I wish the best for her , and I worry about her as we are only 16 yrs, apart , and we did ask if she would be canadate for wls , but her docs say her heart would not be able to take it so they won't do it and is diabetic and has to do insulin twice a day and take her pils 3 times a day , including asprin 5 times a day so I get it , eat to hear for you , I bet you are real happy that you don't have to do the insulin any more , pretty soon it will be just vitiamins for you Yeah !
