    You look incredible and speaking for someone who has had 2 heart attacks, your numbers look great. You would be suprised how many ladies don't survive heart attacks. The stats are not really positive for women with MI's. Great work, congrats all around. Keep up the great work.

    Way to go! Make sure that this is a lifestyle change, and not a diet! Keep it up!

    That must have been the most amazing news ever! I recently had 3\4 of my liver removed as I had tumors. They managed to do it key hole\laprascopically, if I hadn't lost the weight it would have been open surgery. It was already a horrendous thing to recover from so I'm glad the keyhole made it easier. Plus I'm sure me being lighter and fitter when I feel ill helped. X

    I may re-read this every week to keep me inspired. I know I was on the same road as you and I am thankful to have been given a wake-up call before anything really serious happened. Seeing you do it....reminds me that I can do it too. Thank you for being transparent and real with your MFP friends.

    You are AMAZING!!! Awesome story and i know that had to be very scary. Conjestive heart failure runs rampant in my family
    and i was just put on my 1st blood pressure pill/water pill and it scared me to death. I only have 40 pouds to lose but its been slow going no matter what I do. You did awesome, how exactly did you lose the weight, what type of food,exercise etc.
    Would love to hear how u did it
