Photos

Before and after pictures

These are photos of me and my son taken a couple of years apart. The first photo was taken in 2005 when I weighed 215 lbs (my son is standing on a stool in the first photo and has just started to grow his long hair). The 'after' photo was taken in the summer of 2007. I weigh 165 lbs and my energy level is back to what was when I was 20 years old.

Back to health

Exercise is just as important as diet. Nowadays I jog about 15 miles a week, usually a 3 mile jog. The thing I like about jogging is it gets my heart rate up to about 150 bpm. It also gets some much needed sun on that bald head of mine!!

The endorphins kick in at about 'mile 2' and all the little aches and pains go away and seems like you could jog forever...just like the 'ultimate Taoist'- Forrest Gump! :)

Be careful tho...any extreme exercise creates a lot of free radicals and burns up your metabolic enzyme supplies. We always hear about some top athletes getting cancers...Lance Armstrong comes to mind...I believe the body can't keep up with the enzyme demands and the pancreas can't keep up with production. If you exercise moderately to heavy make sure you are constantly replenishing your body with live enzymes!

Also...I only started to jog after I lost the extra weight. Until I was down in weight I rode a stationary bike.
