You should!

I know a 58 year old smoker who was drinking 8 cans of redbull per day (which is 56 a week) and he had a heart attack at work the other day because his blood pressure was so high.

Do it mate.
It is for the best.

I gave them all up in my 20's, was relying on them to go to work (I did 10pm till 6am or 4am to 1pm).
Being honest they were awful to come off of and it took weeks for my energy levels to return.

Great amount of weight loss there. Well done.

I've taken up the golf again and finding the walking is making me feel better as I too was very much a sit in the house kind of person. Have done 50k steps in the 4 days I've been on a course in the last 7 days. Enjoying it as well getting out for a couple of hours most evenings for 9 or 12 holes of golf.
 
Kicking bad habits is always a good thing, even though it can be very difficult to do.

I respect the people who can do it.

That's crazy, I know not everyone metabolises caffeine the same way, but having a coffee after 2pm or something can affect when I fall asleep.
 
Hell yeah brother!

Great work on the weight loss and getting back into something you used to enjoy, I wish you many big fishes and good health going forward! :D
 
Congratulations on your weight loss, especially considering 22 stone must have impacted your ability to easily exercise - making the feat much harder.

I used to course fish a lot as a teenager and I've often considered getting some tackle and starting again.
 
Nice one bro.
You can't beat just being outside sometimes. -it's so good for you overall mental health.
As is being bored, & putting yourself in a position where you can allow yourself to be genuinely bored (harder than ever in our overstimulated, constantly connected world)
 
Great work. It’s amazing what weight loss can do. I know it’s US trash TV, but the difference in those on my 600lb life who actually have the determination to lose the weight is incredible. I’ve seen them go from being confined to bed permanently to doing things like working as a DJ or taking their kids to the zoo or the seaside. It’s just amazing to see. Must be like being released from prison after a very long sentence

That's madness.

How does having a big dose of caffeine before bed help you sleep?
