As most of you know my DH Alvin has gastric-by pass surgery on April 19. After just 6 weeks he's lost about 78 pounds and the best news is that his PCP called him yesterday and said that after reviewing his labs, he wanted him to cut his diabetes medicine, and his high blood pressure in half. I'm so proud for him. Maybe within a few more months he'll be off it completely!!!

Good for him and good for you. You should be proud!

Kudos!

Great news! Wouldn't it be wonderful when he can go off of it permanently!?

and i'm sure he'll stay motivated now. it's been a long haul for both of you, but it sounds as if things are settling in now..
