|
|
So anyway, I sprained my ankle really bad on a hike during our first week of the 30 day slim down. It still swells and hurts sometimes, so I finally went to see the doctor today. My regular doctor was booked, so I made an appointment with a new doctor. She walked in the exam room, immediately got a very puzzled look on her face, and then told me she thought she was in the wrong room. She had looked at my medical records, and was expecting someone much heavier with a history of obesity. She couldn't get over how fit I looked and how much weight I'd lost. My blood pressure is down considerably since my last visit to 100/70. Excellent! She ordered a cholesterol test, so I'll let you know what the results are when I get them. I know it's considerably lower than the 207 I registered in the summer. The last 10 minutes of my office visit consisted of me giving exercise and diet advice to the doctor! She was full of questions, and in awe of my results...
I'll weigh in tomorrow and give you my 5-week weight loss total soon! |
