Re: Medicals

That's the weird thing about it. I know all this, I KNOW what's good and what's bad, I know but I still choose to eat the bad stuff and sit on my arse. People smoke despite knowing the damage it...

Re: Medicals

Yes, but it really is that simple. I struggle with having temptation in the house. Me and my flatmate keep a few beers and wine in the flat so it's always there. I need to not drink on week nights....

Re: Medicals

Oh, I know diet is the biggest factor. I'm a comfort/stress response eater/drinker. :o

How often should I be doing the 7 thing? Every day or, as I planned, every other day alternating with walking?

Re: Medicals

Yep, changes are being made to the meds I take. I was on a 3-a-day thing but kept forgetting to take them. I'm also going to make some much-needed lifestyle changes. I know I can do it; I've done it...

Re: Medicals

Re: Medicals

Re: Medicals

Went to the doctor last night about my poorly finger (don't laugh it's bloody painful). Took my BP and it was like 180/100. Oops. Came down a bit later to 167/100, but still way high. Doctor...

Re: Medicals

Not great stuff, to be fair. I try to eat a reasonably healthy breakfast and lunch. Alcohol is the killer at the moment. Those numbers are what I got when I input my stats into the IIFYM site.

Re: Medicals
