The big six oh

CarvedTones

About 18 months ago I decided I needed to get healthy. I was drinking too much and have history of it getting out of control. So I decided to stop for good. One of the driving forces behind trying harder than ever before to make this time stick was the fear of going into my 60s as a problem drinker; risks of poor health and early death go way up. 18 months ago, I was also overweight (BMI over 33) and out of shape, which are two more big risk factors. Well, today I turned 60. I haven't had a drink in over 18 months, my BMI is below 25, I can do two hours of cardio non stop and I have visible abs. I can hardly believe that last part; that wasn't a goal because I didn't think that was realistic. So I am pretty pleased.

Happy 60th - I am 55 and have your same motivation to stay healthy. Nice to see that defined abs appear as a fringe benefit of transforming your life .
