I am coming to the conclusion that rigorous exercise, and so called healthy diet, and living a sensible life; is a waste of time.
My G/F daughter was rushed into hospital Tuesday morning, complaining of "shortness of breath" She was diagnosed as having a blood clot on her lung.
A more fit person you could never wish to meet. Eats healthily, cycles ten miles a day, swims three times a week, and she is now laid up in hospital, and has been told to cut down on exercise. She is 33 and it has devastated her.
My thoughts are that in the past, having been a fitness fanatic (IN THE PAST) I have completed nine marathons, and was addicted to running. Result, two knee joints shot to shit, and one hip joint going that way.
I now eat when I WANT to eat, not when I am supposed to eat, do gentle walking, and basically let my body tell me what it wants. Drink water when I am thirsty (or v&c) heh heh and eat when I am hungry. I manage to stay at 10s 8Lb, being 6' tall.
What does anyone think?
