Fadi,
You always say "Thank you for your time" or something similar. I do honestly believe that it is I (and many others) that should be thanking you.
I don't post much here, but believe me when I say, that your posts (along with Markos' ) have helped me hugely, in my quest to once again be healthy, live healthy and be the best me, that I can be.
Thank you, for your time, good sir.
Shane.
Thanks Fadi. Truly inspiring stuff! Now hurry up and publish a training and diet book!
WoW fadi a great history you have going , great to have such a wealth of info and experience on the forums
... So then I think that it's only appropriate to thank the people who took some of their precious time and paid attention to what I had to say. To me their action is enormously important and I would feel that I'd be inconsiderate not to thank them for their time. So thank you Shane for your sharp observation and may you have the best of health my friend.
Fadi.
Your words reminded me of Henry Rollins, one of my favourite singers and spoken word performers. He visits from America every couple of years, and a few years ago said to us in the audience, "I know it's a long way for me to travel, but if you're all prepared to come out tonight to listen to me, the very least I can do is get on a plane and talk to you." His sentence has since stuck in my mind about the humility and gift of giving.
If I may ask, you mentioned you were a fiery young man; was it the passing of time that gently shaped you into the person you are, or incidents in your life that forced or inspired change? Or both perhaps, or neither?
You are an absolute gentleman Fadi.
Might I ask why you left the AIS?
You ate for breakfast what I eat in a day
How did you work up to eating so much?
Two points here Nicole:...but there's also swirling denial and anger about depleting youth and a life not lived to its full potential,
No Nicole, they are both important and they are real because they are part of your past and who you are today because of it. But the point to remember here Nicole is that nothing you ever do today can ever erase that "missed opportunity" if you like, so why dwell on it and drain energy better served at the present moment?although intellectually I know they're not important or perhaps even real.
Maybe so, but it would be a whole lot easier when you give all your energy for today and let none dwell on yesterday.Finding the inner calm and what's important is difficult many days.
You're welcome.Thank you for sharing your journey
I am a relative new comer to this
forum and eating and working out thing.
However, I concur with everyone's opinion
and tag given to Fadi as "Yoda".
Just reading replies to posts from Fadi I
realise that he has vast knowledge in this
area and 'sometimes' yes 'sometimes' he get's
too deep with the technical stuff that I get
lost!!!... lol
Takes me another 15 - 20min to google all the
words and concepts to make sense of Fadi's
replies. Which in turn makes me more knowledgeable..
So Fadi my thanks for being so open and
giving to this forum.
Devante.
P.S. Now go answer my latest post Fadi about
motivation...
Thank you Devante and sorry for getting a bit technical at times; I'll do my best to minimse it next time.
