A 150 over 120 reality check...

Yesterday at work we had the lab come in and do our blood work. It is free for us and we get a discount on our health insurance if we participate. Among other things, they check our blood pressure. Now, I have NEVER had high blood pressure, and I admit to be a little stressed out yesterday morning, but I almost fell out of my chair when my results came back and said 150 over 120. HOLY CRAP!!! That is outstandingly high. High enought that my boss wants me to recheck today and if it is still that high call my doctor. Yikes.

On that note. I have made comments about how I am going to get healthier and it is not about losing weight....well, at this time it has become about losing weight, too. It is a proven fact that weight loss helps with those issues.

V....I seriously - for my health - need to lose about 20 pounds in the next few months. I am way TOO young to have this kind of issue.
