I was always overweight. In the last few years I had begun to develope diabetes and high blood pressure. I have decided
to do something about it. I had Weight Loss Surgery, and my only regret is that I did not have it done 8 years ago after
I had my son, Nigel. I also have a beautiful daughter, Katrina. Within days of surgery my blood sugar levels had gone to
60-70 range, and within 2 months my blood pressure was a perfect 122/80.

Here I am at 185 pounds. It is now July 1, 3004. Almost 3 years since my surgery.
I maintain my weight of 185. I still need to have a lower Body Lift and breast lift and I will one of these days. I
can eat just about anything I want. I try to keep it high protien. But I eat more carbs now that I am close to
my goal. I have no more diabetes or high blood pressure. My blood sugar is always at a level of 60-80, and my
BP is 110/70 like clockwork. I am happier and healthier than I have ever been in my life. I don't drink or do
drugs or smoke cigarettes!!
