Let me first do an approximate conversion to the good old US/English measures.

178cm =~ 5' 7"  131 kg =~ 288 pounds, 119 kg =~ 261 pounds.  Here I'm using 2.2 pounds per kg, and from memory say that's the approximate conversion.  If I have this anywhere near right, it is a good you have lost weight, keep up the good work.  Now maybe someone who knows what lvef is will comment.
