Just came from the doctor.  He said my blood pressure has gone down.  I have lost over 13 pounds this far.  In May I was getting a cortisone shot in my knee because it was so painful to walk.  Now my knee feels fine!  My niece's wedding was 6/25 and I was dancing away! Things are improving slowly but surely. The doctor wants to see me 8/8 to see if I can stay off blood pressure medicine.  I feel young again!
