21 and 1/4 lbs to go want to get to 190 and hopefully maintain that weight, just went to the doc this past friday and numbers are great he took me off of cholesterol and triglycerides meds had been on flexarils for lower back, bloodpressure meds of benicar 40mg 12mg HCT, and potassium now down to just 20mg of benicar for bloodpressure. He stated if I lose another 20+ lbs that he will most likely take me off of the 20mg of benicar. This is the first time in 15 years that I am down to only one med and I feel better than I have in years.
