Ben's experience has inspired me to get back on my healthy eating habits track and lose the 15 pounds i have gained.
While I do exercise every day, I know that my fat ass puts me at risk for diabetes. And makes me look like a fatass. Thank you ben, for inspiring me with your healthy and positive attitude. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Haggerty, Mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Date: Wednesday, March 12, 2003 6:10 am Subject: Solidarity > Given the people on this list and their loved ones affected by various > medical issues which will require a lifestyle change, I want to > show my > concern for their challenges in a meaningful way. > > I assume many of the CF-Community people are like me, spending a large > amount of time behind a computer each day, eating large portions > of just > about anything that passes for food each day for lunch, and utterly > deficient when it comes to exercise. > > Given that it is the lenten season and I am supposed to be giving > somethingup anyway, I am going to work consciously to change my > habits as a tribute > to those who have to change theirs.
