Synopsis
Who Moved My Cheesecake? - A Man's Guide on How to Avoid being Dragged Kicking and Screaming into Middle Age
In 2006, as I approached the age of forty-seven, I was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes, Metabolic Syndrome, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, high triglycerides, being fat, and lazy. I had two choices; continue with my current lifestyle and die or change. I chose change. I'm not a doctor, although sometimes I play one for my wife. This book chronicles my strange, roller coaster path to surviving middle age and the steps I took so I could be around to watch my little girl grow up. Hopefully, It can be a wake up call for the majority of regular guys in this country like me who need a swift kick in the butt to wake up before it is too late. The truth is sometimes stranger than fiction and this book is an example. If I can help just one person make a change, then it worth although the research, time and effort.
