It's hitting the homefront...

Hello all,

A serious post, not based on any scientific facts other then I want you all to know how proud I am of you to take this step in making yourself better.  Today, of all days, I received the phone call I knew I would once recive....really, I've been waiting my whole life- hoping & praying NOT to get this phone call.  My Dad had a minor heart attack this morning while he was at work.  They called EMS and took him to the hospital, where I am now sitting while they are running more tests.  My Dad has smoked my entire life.  If he has a salad, one may ask if he'd like some lettuce with all the dressing and fixings he adds to the salad. I actually asked him if he wanted to participate in this Biggest Loser Challenge, and he declined.  He has a history of heart attacks...so, needless to say, myself and sisters have alwyas feared that he one day would have one.

This is why, it is so important to take charge of your life.  Life is a very precious gift, we are all here for a reason, and let's all remember to live each day to the fullest.  Take charge TODAY for what it is you want out of life...and remember to take care of your health while you are at it!  Much love to you all! Lynsey

**Note: He's been admitted, and we aren't 100% sure if he did or didn't have a heart attack; but thus far, he's hooked up to some monitors to watch him, and are running tests.
