Rack you for not playing the "it wasn't me, it was my fat brother card".BSmack wrote:
I can't speak for Paul, just myself. For me, a lot has changed since 1997. Namely, I decided that I'd rather grow old with my wife than make her a widow for the last 20 years of her life. I'm already 10 years older than her and the actuarial tables are making me spot her another 6 years or so. Simply put, when I got married, I realized that I had to work twice as hard if I was going to ever have a chance of celebrating a 50th wedding anniversary with her. Which I would very much like to do. So I put the work in every day.
5 years ago, I was a candidate for high blood pressure, high cholesterol and diabetes. Now I'm sporting a BP of 110 over 70, a resting pulse rate of 70 bpm, my sugar and cholesterol are all good and I've managed to avoid the necessity of taking any medication other than my allergy meds. As for my level of fitness, I can walk 18 holes on a summer day while carrying my bag and my back 9 score stays within 3 strokes or less of my front 9 score. For a 41 year old guy, I figure that's a pretty good start. But I'm by no means finished. That's why I have all that gear in my basement.
I've seen the pics :D
Good luck with the fitness regimine - it's one day at a time
