I had a mechanical mitral valve replacement when I was 14 and I've been on coumadin since. I have all the measurements to be a fashion model, except for my hips. I'm 5'9.5", 32-24-37.5. I have been offered contracts by all the top agencies in the world. I've tried everything to lose the inches but had no success.
