Its nice to see people spend more time thinking about their health and taking direct actions to improve it. This really stood out for me though:

>During these two months I'd not been exercising at all.

Working in the health field I can't begin to express how important it is to exercise frequently. The human body is designed to run, not to sit in an office for 8 hours a day punctuated by 2 minute walking breaks to the bathroom every few hours.

Also, stop eating once in a while. Nearly every culture and religion has a historical link to fasting yet only recently are the benefits being explored in a scientific manner.

Please fellow HN, take heed from the author and try to commit to a good diet and regular exercise, for the sake of you and your family.

Great work Harj, keep it up. You're a source of inspiration for many.
