No More High Blood Pressure
November 8th, 2007 by Rian | Filed under Miscellaneous.The good news is that my blood pressure is now 133/87. So it is not high. I don’t have to take meds… yet.
I’m supposed to go take a fasting blood test tomorrow.
The doctor said that I am not at an unhealthy weight, which floored me. I think it is because he sees downright obese people every day and compared to them, I am thin.
Ahh yes, and my semi low-carb diet seems to be working already. Just after one day, I’ve lost a pound. (Considering it took 3 weeks to lose a damn pound by merely exercising and cutting calories, I’d say low carbing is what actually works for me).
I need a break. From the computer, from the web, from everything. Seriously. I’ll be back in a few days.
Are you in a healthy BMI range? Isn’t that what doctors should go by???
I used to be overweight and my doctor rarely even mentioned it. I think you’re right, they are used to seeing people that are truly obese.
