Down 81 lbs since last July . 20 lbs of that since surgery last week. I'm making a whole life style change.

Congrats!!! I did that a few years ago and dropped almost 100.

I had to loose 50lbs before they would do surgery . So last October I started a no carb high protein diet. Did a liquid diet some also. One of the hardest things I've ever done. But I had no choice. Live or die from diabetes. And I still got a lot of fishing to do. I started gaining weight back in 2009 when I lost my sight and couldn't work anymore. I gained 120 lbs after that. I had been around 280lbs before that and was always trying to loose weight then. But being in trucking industry as an owner-operator my whole life trying to make ends meet it was hard to slow down and take care of myself. If anyone has diabetes and even don't have any symptoms please take care of it early. I'm not but 45 years old. It's a silent killer for a long time.
