Twelve months ago i was a overweight sales rep with a lousy diet, high blood pressure and diagnosed with a Heart irregularity. 20 years of sitting in a car 10 hours a day had done nothing for my waistline. I looked like I'd swallowed a small planet. :D

Lying in AE and watching your heart do freaky things on the monitor sure makes you seriously re evaluate your life. To see my young sons faces when they came and saw me hooked up and with tubes and an oxygen mask on...is something I will never let them see again. I made a promise there and then to myself to be around to see my kids grow and i want to live life with them. Well its was my 45th birthday yesterday and Im pretty bloody pleased with where Im at. Ive got a long way to go but am seriously loving this fitness journey. Thanks for letting me ramble. Love this site and all the pics have been a serious inspiration to me.

Hey Talbot90 (classic car, hmmm)

Nice to hear from you - in fact, glad to hear from you at all, considering the wake-up scare.

Th good news is, it does get better! This clean living, hard training lark grows on a guy - and probably inspires his sons too!

thanks for the comments.

I took some brave pills before I put the pic up as I know i cant compare to most of the people on this forum..I really I wish had taken some before pics ...but I was too embarrassed at the time.

yes my nickname is after the classic car. You know your cars..I had a Sunbeam Talbot90 Mk1 convertible for many years.
