I have been very careful about my weight since my myectomy. It is possible to lose weight but is not easy. I follow Weight Watchers myself. Have you discussed how much exercise is safe for you with your doctor? They are finding that exercise can be very beneficial for those of us with HCM, but should be done under the supervision of a doctor knowledgeable about HCM.

He has said I can go on a treadmill for mile at slow brisk walk and to be sure I do not raise my heart rate up. So kinda useless to get on treadmill and not get heart rate up. Lol. I honestly only eat once a day and never find myself hungry. I am just gaining weight like crazy since meds
