Outrunning My Shadow: Surviving Open-Heart Surgery and Battling Obesity/The Decision to Change My Life (Paperback) Review

Outrunning My Shadow: Surviving Open-Heart Surgery and Battling Obesity/The Decision to Change My LifeI picked this book up and did not put it down until I turned the last page. If you are overweight, you will relate. If you are unhealthy (but not willing to admit it out loud), you will relate. However, if you are thin, and don't understand the overweight population, you need to read this book, so you can relate. This book left me feeling; if he can do it, I can do it. This book also provides great insight to the inner workings of our bodies and what we need to achieve balance both physically and mentally. Thank you for sharing your story.

Product Description:
Outrunning My Shadow: Surviving Open-Heart Surgery and Battling Obesity/The Decision to Change My Life by Keith Ahrens is a fascinating and highly informative memoir about the author's confrontation with mortality and his determination to save his own life. In this self-help book, the author shares the experience of weighing more than 400 pounds, suffering lightheadedness, and finally seeing a physician. When this sedentary man learned that he had suffered a heart attack and that open-heart surgery was his only option for survival, his efforts toward his recovery became dramatically proactive. The spirit of this book is not a confrontation for readers who are overweight, but a supportive and encouraging reminder that everyone deserves to have a long and healthy life, and that paying attention to how we live; food, exercise, regular checkups; goes a long way toward good health. For anyone seeking the inspiration and encouragement to pursue longevity, this is the place to start.
