The Weigh We Were: Reasons for a healthier me! Reasons for a healthier me! ================================================================================ elancer on 07 September, 2007 12:10:00 I have been on this weight loss journey since May 2006 and I've lost 83lbs. My health has improved tremendously!! I am off all high blood pressure meds and no longer have sleep apnea or need for a c-pap machine. I exercise daily and my family is extremely supportive and proud of me as I am of myself. Being healthier has brought new meaning to my life and I am so thankful for each and every day.
