Five years ago, Jose joined our Global PAD Association Facebook group with a simple question: “What does everyone do when your feet get cold?” What followed was an extraordinary journey of resilience and determination. At nearly 700 pounds, Jose was suffering from severe peripheral vascular disease affecting both his arteries and veins. His symptoms were alarming - cold feet, swollen legs, wounds that wouldn’t heal, and even toenails falling off. Doctors couldn’t help until he lost weight. Through the support of our community and a complete nutrition overhaul, Jose lost over 300 POUNDS WITHOUT surgery or medication! Today, his A1C has dropped from 9+ to a healthy 5.1, his blood pressure is normal, and he’s experiencing healing in areas where blood flow had been severely restricted. “Don’t give up on yourself,” Jose shares. “If you’re alive and breathing, there’s still a chance for your situation to get better.” Watch his full interview to hear how he transformed his health, saved his legs, and reclaimed his life for himself and his family. This is why our PAD community exists at www.PADsupportGroup.org - You can also call the Global PAD Association's Leg Saver Hotline to learn more at 1-833-PAD-LEGS ! ❤️ #PADWarrior #PeripheralVascularDisease #WeightLossJourney #SaveYourLegs #DiabetesRemission #GlobalPAD #HealthTransformation #peripheralarterydisease #padsupport #padsupportgroup
