I lost over 100 lbs naturally. I have successfully kept off 70-80 lbs naturally. The weight is creeping up, and I have TGA (congenital heart defect). I can't yo-yo because it's horrible on my heart. I am going to have the surgery to get my weight down more, and God willingly avoid a heart transplant. I also can't do much cardio due to my heart condition but I do work out, weights and circuit train with breaks. And I have for the last 3 years. Every time my heart has a new issue I am basically in bed for a few months, and gain weight. Getting weight off will help my heart and hopefully keep issues down, and not have any more surgeries.
