Sad Article - Well Regarded 38 yr old man dies from Overweight and Heart Disease

Kindof a sad article in the news about a 38 year old man who died from heart disease at over 700 lbs. He was buried in what funeral directors in Britain estimated to be the largest coffin used there, which was carried by horse drawn carraige.

This could well be me, or many of you others who struggle with weigh gain and weight loss. He was a dad with a little boy, and left a widow, a family who loved him, and lots of friends.

Low carb is more than some frivolous message, ...it could actually save so many lives.

Help get the low carb message out!


Life. Live it. Love it. Share it. Help some others along the way...

OMG, these stories make me so incredibly sad. Yes, it could have been any of us had we not found this way of eating.

Only 38 years old - yes, it's imperative that we "get the word out". while we can be so tempted to go up to someone we see while out and about, it would be wrong. The best thing we can do is be vocal and set an example.
