I have Metabolic Syndrome (also called insulin resistance syndrome). I had all the symptoms and markers...hypertension, pre-diabetic, high chol/trig's, kidney problems, arterial plaque problems, obesity, and various other aches and pains...
First goal I reached on MWL was getting my blood pressure back to normal. It was 153/92 with a pulse of 88 when I started this woe.
75 days later it is 104/64 with a pulse of 67.
Second goal reached was to no longer be obese. Yesterday I hit a BMI of 29.5 which means I'm now officially not an obesity statistic anymore. I'm down 43.2 lbs in 75 days.
I'm still way over-weight, but at this rate I think I will be very happy come Christmas...In two weeks I'll have my blood work done again. I'm hoping for some dramatic changes there. I'll post the results then.
