Yea haha 111, but now i'm at 109lbs in the morning, and i have a feelin i have some more weight to loose.

See the thing with me is since i have MD, i dont have muscle mass, so i may look heavier, but muscle weighs more then fat and i have none of both lol. I think i'll drop down to maybe 107-105lbs and hope no more then that. I've also havent been active at all so therefore i've lost what little muscle i had acumulated while i was active in SB.

But yea good news things are looking good for the transplant. Whats cool is if i get it at my age now, I would probably be eligable for another heart transplant in about 15-20 yrs depending on how long it last, casue i'll be around 35-40 yrs old, of course if its God's will.

As for my sis, yea her and my bro are back, he's doing alot better and my sis got her job, she started last sunday-Tuesday and is off again till monday. Works 12 hour days for 3 days, and then every other week an 8 hour shift on saturday to make 80 hours in 2 weeks. So its cool casue she'll have 5 days off.

Good news. Glad things are looking good for you getting the transplant. I didn't realize it would only last 15-20yrs though, I thought once you got one, that's it, you were good. So you're gonna have to go through this crap all over again? Damn, that's brutal. But necessary.

not unless they make artificial hearts that last like 2 million years and you can run around the world (stamina wise) w/o stopping.
that would be ill. make it bullet proof so no one can kill you, lol

Well 15-20 yrs is what some people have been lasting since the whole procedure started about 30 or more years ago. So thats the possible lifespan. Now who knows in about 10 yrs tehy are definatelly going to have come up with something better like wedley said, maybe something artificial that they've implanted in a few people now. They seem to last for a month or 2, but these are people with no hope to live who's life been extended a month or 2 longer.
