19 years ago today was a normal day. I awoke at 6 AM and prior to leaving for work, I completed a 60 minute at-home workout. My routine included exercising on my stair-climbing machine, engaging in challenging strength-training using free weights and completing mat exercises while wearing ankle weights. At this point I had been properly and consistently performing this comprehensive cardiovascular and anaerobic exercise program at home for six years and two months. I had successfully and lost over 50 pounds safely six years earlier in 1990 and continued to keep it off by following this program. The key was combining it with a proper plant-based whole food daily menu. I was the epitome of optimum health and fitness from the inside out for anyone at any age according to my New York Metro Area physicians. I would soon find out that my lifestyle would make the difference between life and death.
The following day, February 13, 1996 would be quite different and through no fault of my own, or anyone else's, the day after that, Wednesday, February 14, 1996 I was literally within hours of it being the last day of my life. I will be posting the synopsis of my story this Saturday, February 14 to benefit all of you NOW with details in my forthcoming book. There are many valuable lessons to be learned, not the least of which is the following: "IF EVERYTHING THAT HAS BEEN SPLASHED ACROSS MULTI-MEDIA PLATFORMS HAD BEEN AT THE FOREFRONT OF MAINSTREAM CULTURE IN 1990 THROUGH 1996 AND HAD I, AS A 28-34 YEAR OLD YOUNG WIFE AND MOTHER BELIEVED IT, IN ALL LIKELIHOOD I WOULD NEVER HAVE SURVIVED THE UNFORESEEN AND NEARLY TRAGIC EVENTS WHICH UNFOLDED ON THAT VALENTINE'S DAY IN 1996. I WOULD THEREFORE NOT HAVE BEEN HERE TODAY TO BE YOUR VOICE OF REASON AND YOUR CHAMPION OF SCIENTIFIC FACTS BASED ENTIRELY ON EMPIRICAL EVIDENCE..." Stay tuned for the greatest and most important lessons this former classroom teacher turned health and fitness advocate will ever impart to you and your loved ones. I do this with integrity, passion and from the bottom of my heart. Until then, CLIMB, LIFT AND EAT WELL...
