Here is one example that will just confirm why you should be exercising now and not waiting until later.
My grandpa will be 87-years old in November. He started battling the effects of heart disease about 25 years ago. After numerous procedures, a pacemaker, angioplasty & stents, he is STILL battling it.
He has made so many postitive changes with his diet and exercise plan since his first problems started and he definitely has benefited from the rewards of that. I'm certain these changes are what has allowed him to live this long. When you think of a an 87-year old man, you think of someone who is frail and just shuffles around. Not so with him. You would never believe he is that old.
Even though he has made these changes, unfortunately, a lot of the damage is irreversible. He's still dealing with it every couple of months. He talks so much about how he wishes he had started this lifestyle earlier.
So, don't wait until the damage done to your body is irreversible. Do something NOW!! It doesn't have to be drastic. Just start incorporating small changes every day and before you know it, you will have changed a lot. If you don't eat any fruit or vegetables, start eating one each day. If you don't exercise at all, just get up and take a little walk. You will be amazed how quickly you will feel the benefits of it.
For those of you who have made the committment to change your lives, BE PROUD OF YOURSELVES!! This is such an important step to living a healthy life. Don't EVER GIVE UP!!
