Interesting thought. Right now I am trying to stay on the band diet my doc has me on and rehabbing the knee. It's at 70 percent now.

I got your PM. Appreciate the encouragement. Keep up the fight on your end.You can get the results you are looking for, believe me. I have a few thoughts I would like to share but I'll send them in a PM. I too am heavier than I want to be and working on dropping weight. Fortunately for me I'm very healthy otherwise and only suffer the aches, pains and limited stamina that being too heavy brings. I've had successes AND failures but I know it can be done. When it comes down to it, the first step is to consume less than your body uses...everything else is just a way to do that.
I have often told my family, if I am ever in a coma make sure the docs don't wake me until I'm a at my ideal weight ...I'll consider anything else malpractice.

Things will get better.
Quick update:
Had a stress test yesterday and passed it. Waiting on the rest of my results from the heart doctor. Hope to be cleared for excerise soon. I will be having a HIDA scan on my gall bladder at some point. Still have waves of terrible sickness, chest pain, and shortness of breath, but thankfully my heart is being ruled out.
Weight loss:
have not weighed in since last posting as I don't have a scale right now (the one i bought says i weigh under 300....liar)
Still pressing forward and controlling my diet as best as possible. Hoping to report a new number soon.
I was cleared yesterday by the cardiologist to light excercise. All my heart tests came back normal. They found elevated lung pressure whatever that means. Will meet with him at the end of the month to find out what that means. Other than that am now waiting on the Hida scan to check my gall bladder.Kevin, I hope you're cleared for exercise. Remembering your very first post, if you are cleared for exercise I'll pay for your first months membership to a local gym.
