My husband's grandmother's husband (got that?) had a heart attack 2 1/2 weeks ago, then a second attack in the hospital the next day. He is home now, recuperating, has lost 20 pounds in the process. He is a big man, about 6' 2" or so and I don't remember what he said he weighed then and now, just the difference of 20 lbs, but only had a bit of a belly. He's in his early 70's.

The interesting thing is that his heart doctor is telling him to eat a low carb diet. This WOE is making progress, even here in Kansas.
