Congratulations on accomplishing such impressive weight loss! I think it's amazing that you took responsibility for your health and your life, and I'm glad that you're reaping the benefits :)
Have you had a doctor examine your heart again now that you've lost the weight? Did you have any permanent damage, or are you back at 100% percent? Also, not to be a downer, but I couldn't help noticing the cigarette in the last picture. Are you a regular smoker, and if so, how do you reconcile that with your history of heart disease? I only ask because I smoked for nine years, and it was easy to pretend there wasn't any damage happening because I couldn't see it (whereas with obesity it's obvious). Not to sound like an obnoxious Puritan, but it would kinda suck to undermine all the progress you've made.
