My pre op weight was 440 lb. I was diabetic, hypertensive, sleep apina, lots of joint pain. Was on 28 prescription pills and was hospitalized with congestive heart failure. To day I weight 250, do exercise 6 days a week, take about 12,00 plus steps a day. My family say I am half the man I use to be and twice the man I ever was.
For an allmos 70 year old I do very well. I still use fitday.com daily to record my food intake, I co-chair the Sierra Vista WLS support group and am active in several church groups and civil groups. My meds consist of 3 blood presur meds and an asprian a day. Additionall I take all teh recommeded supplements. Consentrate on protien and soluble fiber in my diet.
I have had two post op occations of surgery for bowel obstructions due to my high fiber intake.
I am ask if I would do it again and with out question I would.
