Why I’m Here
Hello, my name is Bill Schneider and I am 62 years old. Since this web site is about fat loss as well as weight loss there is no need to discuss my life before age 43. At that time I guess my body decided to change how it functioned. I went from weighing in at 165 and feeling good to topping the scales at about 235 over the next 7 years. At age of 50 I decided that I didn’t like being so fat.I went on a very tight diet as well as an extreme workout regimen. Over the course of the next 4 months I got my body weight down to 180 and 8.5 % body fat.
I will scan a couple of the photos from that time period to show you where I was. It felt great. A couple of the local gyms that I worked out at even put my pictures on the wall.
This went really well for a couple of years then I took a turn for the worse. After work one afternoon I had a DR.s appointment to see why this irritating little tickle in my throat wouldn’t go away. Two days later I was having surgery to remove a cancerous lesion from my vocal cords. They removed the tumor and then I went through 6.5 weeks of radiation therapy. Let me tell you, the surgery and the radiation were done in a few weeks , the mental aspect of the big C word took about 2 years to get over. By that time I was back at the top of the weight scale and still feeling sorry for myself. It was pathetic. Just as I was getting it back together another incident occurred. I was riding my horse when it stumbled and fell, rolling over on my leg. A couple of weeks later I had a total knee replacement. Less than a year after that the knee failed and had to be redone. Suffice it to say I was a basket case. Recently, the last two or three years, I have been meditating regularly and studying the works of Wayne Dyer. My attitude has come around and I am working out again. Watching my diet as well. I have tried several methods to cut the weight and fat. I am at 200 again and still dropping . I am feeling good and very happy with my workout and nutrition routine. If you would like to check it out just sign up at the right side of your screen.
I would just like everyone to know that it is possible to get up and keep going. My life is better now than it has been in years.
I will publish articles and share with you some of the programs I have used along the way.
Be Well
Bill
