Here's a great blog post by Kevin at fan blogs about the day he had a heart attack and almost died. I found it again this weekend after the Tim Russert news. I had been loosely trying to lose some weight with a semi-low carb diet and sporadic exercise, but it may be time to get a lot more serious. Reading some of 5Team's posts this weekend are also motivating.

This guy Kevin is 34--that's what is so scary.
