Just a quick note to let you all know Valentines Day will be exactly one month since my lap band surgery and I cannot tell you how happy I am that I have made this decision to better my overall health.

Within the first thirty days and 10 days prior to surgery on a liquid diet. I have lost a total of 44 pounds. When I went for my first fill 2 days ago I was in total awe.

I did notice my blood pressure became a lot lower than usual. I was told by the awesome staff at NYU langone to see my physician regarding my BP meds.

After seeing my physician, he immediately took me off one of my three meds that I have been taking for the past 15 years.

"One Down - Two to Go"

Since my surgery I have to say I am eating better, being more aware I what I eat and looking for a healthy lifestyle for the rest of my life.

I will check in from time to time and thanks for all your support!!!!

Congrats JoJo keep up the great work.

Woo hoo !!!

Congratulations!
