2 Years ago this month my doctor finally said the D word, Long story short 50 lbs lighter exercise 6 days a week. So far this week I have logged 160+ miles and the weekend beckons!
My friends and family think its wonderful that I'm "better" but can't understand why I ride my bike soooooooooooo much. My doc wishes we had taken before and after pictures even though I still need to lose 30 lbs.
Moderate exercise, reasonable eating habits and life is good. Instead of spending $$$$ each year on fad diets and prescriptions for all the ailments, go figure.
I think the saddest comment from the Doc was that I was "the first patient in years to actually listen and put into practice the simple prescription."
