Health issues that followed me into 2006 and which will, I hope, be eradicated as I embark on my odyssey to health and fitness.

EATING HABITS

-Few vegetables, almost no fruit

-High saturated fat and trans-fat

-LOTS of sugar and caffeine

-Hardly any water

FITNESS

-Fitness? What fitness? I can’t climb one short set of stairs without huffing and puffing. If I have to hurry down the street even a little, I’m breathing heavily for a ridiculous amount of time.

When I lost 200 lbs around the year 2000, I was walking 5 miles to work and back, playing racquetball, dancing, rollerblading, was going to the gym, biking, and taking a spinning class. My resting heart rate was in the high 30s and low 40s first thing in the morning. During the day my resting heartrate averaged in the low 60’s.
