Hi everyone! My name is Elizabeth and I am 17 years post transplant. I am doing really well. I just got my lab work back and everything is looking great! I was able to lose 40 lbs since January and now my cholesterol, triglycerides and blood pressure are all down by a lot!

Lol! You are so worthy! Drinking plenty of water helps a lot.
