Thanks to everyone for today's meeting. It was a real pleasure to catch up as always. Could I ask a small favour please? I've recently joined a website where doctors get online reviews. As I have only just joined I currently haven't got any reviews and wanted to start with yourselves to get the ball rolling. Would you mind please clicking on this link and submitting a review for me? Thanks for your help. https://www.doctify.com/uk/review/JWE8oi/single

This is week’s challenge is to choose one of 3 things that “future you” will thank you for. Pick one of: 1️⃣ Do one short burst of intensity Not a full workout. Not a huge time commitment. Just one moment in your week where you push a bit harder than usual: Brisk walk up a hill Climb a few flights of stairs Short fast-paced walk Only if your at a place in your recovery where this is safe. 💡 Why this matters: Cardiorespiratory fitness (VO₂ max) is one of the strongest predictors of survival we have. Even small doses of intensity can move the needle and significantly reduce stroke risk. 2️⃣ Check something you’ve been avoiding Be honest—there’s probably something you know you should check but haven’t. The longer you put it off the more it's slowly eating away at your health. This week, pick one: Blood pressure Weight or waist circumference Step count / activity levels Cholesterol Track your meals 💡 Why this matters: You can’t improve what you don’t measure. Most stroke risk builds silently—knowing your baseline is step one. 3️⃣ Go to bed 30 minutes earlier (twice this week) Just twice! 💡 Why this matters: Sleep affects: Blood pressure Blood sugar Appetite Energy to exercise It’s one of the most powerful—and most ignored—health levers. Just a couple of early nights can set you up to be much healthier. It's but about perfection. Not a complete lifestyle overhaul. Just 3 small actions that shift your trajectory very slightly in the right direction. 👇 Your Turn Comment below with: Which 1 thing you’re committing to this week. Future you is watching 👀

Good afternoon. With it being Easter weekend a lot of people, including myself are away on Sunday. As such I'm going to cancel our usual Monday catch up, but we will post in the group and arrange a catch up after Easter. Wishing everyone a lovely bank holiday weekend.
