2 ppl I care for dearly.
One a brother
One a close friend.
Both not looking after themselves health wise.
Non smokers thankfully.
One gotta knee replacement 18 months ago.
Prior to this was a regular gym goer,
Looked and felt( his word) good.
Since surgery he’s up 3 stone at a guess,
Won’t return to gym ( too dear F that etc is his mantra when I bring it up)
Yet as I pointed out to him what he’s spending on booze Fri/Sat night would pay for his membership,
No joy and I can see he’s struggling physically.
Won’t listen to sense.
Other chap is carrying 4 stone plus extra maybe more,
High blood pressure .
On the anti fat new injection effort for a while and actually put on a stone in 3 weeks,
So gave it up,
Refuses my offer of paid membership of the gym he used attend,
Both are good friends but won’t last the course at all and can see them in a bloody wheelchair eventually well before their time,’their quality if life will be shit unless they at least make an effort now ,
I’m genuinely worried about the whures but I’m getting nowhere.
