I found out last night from my Dad that one of my uncles through marriage, who lives in the north island had a heart attack on Saturday and is now in Waikato hospital awaiting a bypass operation.
My Dad said right away that he wasn't surprised. I have another uncle - this time my Dad's brother, who's also had a heart attack. It's probable that both of these were related to lifestyle.
I wonder if both these men would have done things differently if they'd known. I guess what I really want to say is, look after your body now, while it's easier to do so. This stuff gets harder as you get older and habits form.
Being healthy is a lifestyle, not just something you do for 12 weeks. Took me a while to figure that one out :)
