[QUOTE="Aldebaran, post: 1879774, member: 102468"] Thanks leyburnhealeyman and congratulations on your weight loss and what you have achieved and are doing at the ripe young age of 74. Many times when someone gets older they "can't see the point of" improving their health and lives overall but you've shown it can be done. I'm worn out just reading about all the exercise you do lol but I am really impressed. Thank you very much Dr Snoddy. Thanks hooha. I really do feel lucky that he was listening. I think it was more of a case of him finding it hard to believe that what I've done is possible. I am willing to help in any way. I think that the seemingly hypocritical side of things is because of the code and rules the doctors have to go by. It is frustrating to hear this. We need more doctors to have the courage to step outside of the box and stand up for what is right. I couldn't do their job. They work hard for what they do and many times still have to adhere to rules that people, who are clueless to what works, set in place. Well done to you hooha. Thanks polly and yes it is amazing when medical professionals take into account what you say. This is hopefully a sign that they want answers and improvements for everyone. It took a couple of years polly for me to get my head around this but the fears I had pushed me to do something about it. If you have a bad day, don't beat yourself up..just jump back onto the healthy wagon and do what you can. Take every little achievement as a huge goal and be proud. I'm still tempted a lot today because we're bombarded with lovely tasting food that is full of rubbish but it will NOT govern me like it did ever. I like ME too much now. Good luck polly xx :) [/QUOTE]
