Had my annual physical in August and tipped in at 236 lbs. More importantly, my blood tests showed i was at the borderline for type two diabetes.
My doctor had me come back in Christmas week, eight months before I normally would have seen him again. He told me in August I was going on diabetic medication if my numbers didn't improve. I went in on the 22nd. My weight was down to 222. More important, my hemo numbers improved. He told me to keep doing what I'm doing. No type two.
No sleep apnea either. I had my bi annual DOT physical in May and she told me my neck circumference was the highest it could be without being sent for more sleep apnea testing. That had dropped two weeks ago as well. So 2020 wasn't a total lost cause for me.
