Resolution to help my heart

Hi all, I am a young 79, 5’5, 170 lbs. I went to emergency on Jan1, and they couldn’t find a hospital bed for me! Finally did and fortunately discharged 1/5 with only new meds and further tests to come. It was a very traumatic experience, especially when the discharge papers described me as “ an elderly obese female”! What? Anyway it did spur me into action and joined MFP again! The doc said losing at least 20 lbs would help, so have not missed a day so far and so far do not miss my wine! Slow progress, only 3 lbs so far! Wish me luck and fortitude, please!
