I AM HUMBLED, by the tribute that appeared on Bobs blog
http://pfg-workout.blogspot.com/ that has my name on it.
This is a fine young man who has decided to make a committment to health and fitness because of a visit to the "Master's" site Adam Waters.
He has a great blog with a very powerful Look and Feel and I urge all of you to support him through his own journey.
Merci Beaucoup, mon ami....magnifique.
If my story can help one person to get off the couch and use his mouth to evangalise health and fitness...I'm eternally grateful.
OBESITY is no longer a "fat thing" it is an EPIDEMIC, a DISEASE. Take a look around our shopping malls at fat kids being PUSHED in trolleys by fat parents.
We all have an OBLIGATION to be strong and healthy if we are to be effective in a world that is becoming Ineffective.
How much credibility do we give a doctor who smells of smoke or a nutritionist who is over weight. Or a trainer who clearly is not eating what he advocates. (and I used to be one of those)
Adam Waters gave me hope and has done the same for thousand's so if you've lost motivation GO BACK TO HIS SITE and read it again. Find what it is that will help you and GET OF THE COUCH.
I'm exercizing 10 days out of hospital with a broken neck...WHAT'S YOUR EXCUSE.
Saturday my 3.5km walk took me an hour today 40mins, I'm stoked. Legs tomorrow and some shoulder shruggs
It's a beautiful sunny winter's day here in South Africa and I'm thankful to be alive.

Dougal--we're thankful you're alive too. Great post today. I walk thru the Mall and I can't believe how many really FAT people there are--and their kids are walking in their shoes. It's scary. What if we all had to defend our homes or homeland...how in the heck could we do that? How can any of us flee from an attacker? We are a country (USA) full of slugs. I refuse to be fat anymore...that's why I am doing my thing! I am more determined than ever to become fit again. Thank you for your inspiration. I am thankful to God for allowing your story to reach and touch us all.
Dougal, I am happy to see you back at it and with such a great attitude. You are taking an awful situation and turning it into something incredible. My hat is off to you mate! You know where I am if you need me!
Hi Amigo Dougal,
Your blog always makes me feel to good and wanting to be a better me. Thanx for all you are showing us, and for being such a model for all. Tomorrow I too will do 3.5 km, and will measure how long it took me and tell you. Let´s go!
Lynda
Awesome job, Dougal! Simply awesome.
