I've just recently been diagnosed with a rare heart condition and this year I know it's time to change my life, body, and health. I have been in and out of the hospital all my life and I know I need to take better care of myself. Wish me luck and good luck to everyone else!

    welcome, and please be careful with your health. Make sure your calories are not under 1200 a day and you are eating a balanced diet as found in the food guide. Counting calories sometimes makes you forget that you need all of your nutrients in the day to be healthy as we get so caught up in the final caloric numbers.

    I truly wish you the absolute best with changing your lifestyle to improve your health. As we all know here, it's not easy and we all struggle. So I would really like to be an encouragement to you, especially with your heart condition. I know that alone can be motivation enough to get you going, but for those days you just don't feel like it, know that I am pulling for you! Also, motivating and encouraging you forces me to try and stay focused. I have failed so many times at this that I fear I will let myself down. But please keep posting your progress so that we can check up on you. All the best, really! sincerely, Wanda:bigsmile:

    Thank you all so much for all the wonderful encouragement sorry that I didn't reply sooner my internet here is really really slow and it has been down for two days. Excited today I am off of my heart monitor that I was on (I had to wear it for three weeks to keep track of things it looks like a little beaper) Anyhooo I am doing wonderful still sticking to my diet my doctor recommended and felt good enough to walk on the tredmill for an hour a day. My husband asked me today if I would put him on this website also. He's in the military and has to get in shape. He's going to go through NCO training. Well, thanks again and God bless!
