Check out, Ron and Tina! They are embracing their health as a journey and enjoying the victories along the way. Ron shares:
"Possibility exists for anyone. There is no secret formula, program, drops you put on food, counting points, wraps, cheat days, eating like a Neanderthal, living on shakes, or whatever else is out there. It's all about waking every day and making choices about one's health.
Last year we hit rock bottom with our health and excess weight. We were both clinically diagnosed at being obese. It was either change our lifestyle choices (primarily eating) or suffer the consequences. Diabetes runs on both sides of my family. I was on blood pressure meds for three years. Tina has rheumatoid arthritis, and excess weight is painful for her hips and joints.
Today, at the age of 64, a resting pulse of 38, a blood pressure average of 118/78, and a BMI of 20, I did a 6-mile run in the Arizona desert under a blue sky and 75 degrees at less than 8 minutes per mile. A year ago, there is no way I could have done that. The God of the second chance came through for us again. This time it was all about our health, and we're not going to blow it. God has a plan for us, and it has nothing to do with numbers on a scale and everything to do with honoring Him in what He has planned for us. Our new health status is a means to an end. Our story is not yet finished."
