About me

Thankyou for visiting and checking out my blog!

My name is Chris and i started this blog as a way to document my personal progress through changes i have experienced. I hope that what i share helps and inspires other readers who may take inspiration from my journey! 🙂

In January 2024 i turned 40 years old and was living a pretty unhealthy, demotivating lifestyle. I was also aware that when you reach this milestone age in life you are due to get a health check or well man check so this had been on my mind a lot. Before the health check i had to get a blood test which was then analysed where i was informed by email i had to contact the doctors. This left me feeling uneasy and nervous as i had a feeling it was bad news. It felt as though a switch had flicked inside me as i knew something had to be done about this even before i had the health check

When i spoke to the GP surgery they informed me that my Cholesterol levels were high and that i would need to contact the doctor. I made the decision to go ahead with the health check where i was informed this was the case and that i would need to change my diet and lifestyle to bring my levels back down to a healthy range.

I found the health check both daunting and inspiring as I knew that i needed to make these changes if I was to continue my journey through life and be there for my Wife and 2 Children. My health check was 4 months ago and it has helped and inspire myself to keep track of my journey and the positive changes which i have made and embraced.

I hope you find some of these tips and tricks helpful as I hope to inspire other Men and women who are not only turning 40 but who may need a little encouragement and motivation to change for the better. Life is a precious thing and we all have a something or someone to be here for and changing and loving ourselves is an important part, if not the most important part.

Thankyou for reading,

Chris
