I went through a stressful time and thought my weight loss was down to not eating. Soon found out I had an overactive thyroid problem ! I `ve lost 2 stone and down to a size 10  :lol:

Yoshi:
Well at the age of 27 i have the same problem as you bezza, but in both knees.

Also have the weight problem, but for all those who say exercise is the answer, its not always that simple.  The doctors have said to me that exercising an arthritic joint can actually make it worse and not better.

I worked with a big fatty called Frank, he was lathargic, tired grumpy, felt unwell, and weighed over 21 Stone
He is now a changed (for the better man), heres his web site.

Its not a gimmic he genuinly wants to spread the word of how he did it.

I was well over weight and lost it by cutting out all the rubbish, crisps buiscuits etc, never eat low fat food, you need to change your tastes, to foods with no fat in.
When you go shopping dont go when you are hungry and dont buy any junk
Its not easy but you can do it and you will feel better and as you say it will extend your life, I had a suspected heart attack at 39 so had a full MOT, I am ok but its a wake up call.

We should all go to our doctors this week and have an MOT, Bloods, Blood pressure pulse,( PSA test depending on age), Mammogramme for the Ladies.
Things can be found and sorted before it becoms noticable.
So whats stopping you??????
Heart trouble and related deaths are far more common than we think, so look after it :lol:

I had an interesting experience recently.
We had a psychologist give us a days training on selling etc thru work.
One thing he did was the following:

He asked, 'If you had 100 points, and you had to allocate them to health, wealth, family.....etc  how would you allocate them?'

Well, most of us put health at least 25 points, family and wealth also scoring high. He then asked how much time and money we use going to work. LOTS
How much time money with family, QUITE A BIT.

How much time and money spent making sure health was in good order(since it was important to everyone there is a fairly large degree)

Most of us did NOWT!

if its worth 25% of your lifes value, and you spend less than 1% chasing it, its never gonna happen is it!


At that point I joined a gym and started running. Im fitter, feel better, and lost about 2 stone. That day made an impact on me, and made me realise I was taking being alive and healthy for granted.
Good look with the diet, get fit, you'll never look back.
