Health and Weight Loss

I've got a confession to make... I had just had my 46th

birthday and became the father of a very beautiful baby

girl. The doctor friend of mine who delivered her and

whom I had known for years, was maybe 15 years my

senior. He asked me, Jim, what are your hopes for this

child? I told him, well maybe I will get to see her finish

high school.

He looked at me and matter of factly said, I doubt that,

from what I see of you, you will be very lucky to see her

start elementary school. I asked him Doc, what makes you

say that? He asked me, how many them cigarettes you

smoke every day? I told him well maybe 4 packs Marlboros

most days.

He looked at me and said how much you weigh? I told him

about 260lbs. I am 5' 11", and 4 packs a day. He said nah,

you'll do good to last 5 or 6 more years. Well this really

shook me up. I thought about it a few months, still burning

4 packs, and getting fatter. I started looking around for

some way to lose weight and escape the cigarette habit that

had been with me for 35 plus years.

Then a couple weeks before thanksgiving day, (my daughter

was born in May) I discovered the weight loss program that

is being sold by Jon Benson, called “Fit over 40”.

After reading about his "Fit over 40” weight loss and health

program. I purchased the program just before Christmas day,

I had managed to quit the cigarettes, but began to blow up

like a balloon, food was taking the place of the cigarettes.

Once I got the Fit and over 40 program and began to study

and understand what I had to accomplish, whew, a good bit of

effort.

I have to say I have passed the threshold, I have lost more

than 42 pounds in less than 7 months, at the same time I

have not smoked a cigarette. I can feel my body getting

stronger each day. I usually walk a couple hours each day

also.

I cannot say enough about the “Fit over 40” program, it is a

very superb and thorough program. I am still using the

program and have another 20 to 30 pounds to go. Expect to

reach my goal sometime in late November. If you are in the

same condition have been in, and your Doctor has told you

you are not going to be around for long, You need to check
