in January and was put on medication. I'm 37 years old. In March I started walking/jogging every night for 40 minutes with my dog. I also started watching what I eat (drastically cut down on fast food, more fruits, veggies, and water, etc.). I had my last cigarrette on February 1st. At that time I weighed 245 pounds. As of 2 weeks ago, I weigh 210 and lowered my blood pressure enough that my doctor is going to take me off the medication. I also lowered my cholesterol from a whopping 295 to 237. Sometimes I don't feel like going for a run but then I look at photos of myself on the wall and for some reason I get motivated all of a sudden.
Bottom line:
Keep it up! You'll be happy you did. |
