Has your almost dying at least helped you lose some weight?

It was my heart condition that caused the weight gain. What I had was fluid retention. It's one of the main side effects of congestive heart failure abused by a defective mitral valve. I ballooned up to 260 lbs by the time I had my heart surgeries. As if this morning I now weigh 191 lbs.

I have to weigh myself every morning and can tell you I've hovered around 191 since this time in January. So in a little over two months I lost 70 lbs, or as my cardiologist described it, roughly 7 gallons of fluids.
