Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying you or anyone needs to go to the extreme of working out all day every day, but small changes in your life style and the addition of some real exercise could make dramatic changes in your life.
Invest an hour a day in yourself, and it will pay you back in spades. You'll sleep better, feel more rested, be sick less often, have more self confidence, look and feel better, etc etc.
Something to consider.  |
Believe me man, I've been doing it, my father died March 2005, 3 days after he turned 48 of a massive heart attack, killed him instantly, never thought anything of it, because he was a trucker, sat on his ass all day and ate steak and potatos. It was understanable, but it kind of scared me at how young he was and how he died, as I was bigger then him at the time, he was like 6'2 210lbs MAX, and I was 6'3 300lbs+ so I started losing weight and shit, eating healthier all because of that. Then last year my uncle (his little brother) died at 39 of the exact same thing, found out its a genetic thing in my family, as my dad's older sister had a heart attack and open heart surgery because of the same reason, only thing is, she didn't die.
Finding out that it's genetic and I could possibly die too unless I did something, I ramped shit up, now I'm 6'3 260lbs, and working on losing more, getting myself into shape, and other stuff. I don't want to die in my 40's like my dad. believe me, I know what you mean.
I can lose weight and make myself healthier, but I can't fix how ugly I am unless I wanna spend money, and I don't care to spend money to make myself eye candy for others, I'm happy with how I look, but I agree, the weight thing I'm working on.
Edit: by the way, those pictures he linked where taken the day we buried my uncle.
