Hi,

3 months ago I weighed over 16 stone, after a visit to the doc he recommended statins as my risk of heart attack due to High blood pressure and family history were high(i'm a 50 yo male). my Bp was 153/90 and resting pulse rate of 78. I didn't want statins and didn't want a hearrt attack either. I found fitness pal and joined a gym.


Today i went back to the doc. I'm just over 14 stone, bp 113/70 and resting pulse rate of 58. He was impressed. so was I. Now I guess I've asked a few dumb questions on here in the last 3 months but I've also picked up a load of great advice.

this post is for 2 reasons. the first is the hope that it motivates people in the position I was in 3 months ago to get stuck in and give it a go. It works. the second is a really pick thank you to everyone who has taken time to answer the posts and share their knowledge with others. It's really appreciated

Thanks all
