OK so here's the back story... for 40 odd years I have been a FAT BASTARD ! I was a fat baby, I was a fat kid, a fat teen, and a fat man... At my peak I was 23 stone (I know thats quite light by USA standards)
In my life I have never smoked, drunk or taken drugs... yes I know quite boring... Anyways about 8 years ago (I would guess) I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetis... and told that the one vice I love, FOOD... was now a no go, well certainly the food I liked the most...
So for 7 years plus I basically ignored this and eat food that would of put most Diabetics in the ground... I am sure I have done some mighty damage to my body internally... However following two health scares, firstly my yearly eye check showing some minor changes behind my eye... and then a ectopic heart beat over Christmas, I am now commited to changing my life...
I have actually turned into a bit of a health nut... I start my day with a green tea, I also have porridge with super fruits (blueberries and cranberries) in it, and also drink POM which is pommigranite (probably spelt that wrong) I am not eating any of the crap cakes, biscuits and sweets like I used to... snacking was definitly a issue...
I take a lot of suppliments including 4 different Amino Acids... I also take Acai, Aloe Vera, and Ginger Root... and plan to phase in more, each which is supposed to help with Diabetis in some shape or form...
I am also drinking a 10 day Detox drink, which I have to say is the worse thing I have ever tasted in my life... it tastes like death !
I'm currently the lowest weight I have been for as long as I can remember, 16 stone 12 pound when I weighed in 2 weeks ago... I am training at a nice gym with both resistance and interval training... it's early days as this is only week 4 since I started... and of course for me this needs to be a life long change... I know if I go back to my old ways I run the risk of going blind, a heart attack, a stroke or losing my limbs... all things that effect Diabetics (well more so that normal people)
So as any one else got Diabetis ? as anyone else had to make a massive change in their lifestyle due to health issues ? I know this isn't really porn related, but just interested to hear any one's story in a similar position... compare notes maybe
