Getting Serious About My Weight Loss
Apr 7th, 2009 Posted in Weight Loss | no comment »
I had to go to the doctor this past week for my yearly check up. I can’t skip it anymore because I have to get my prescriptions renewed every year. For the past 5 years, I have been taking medicine for high blood pressure, high cholesterol, and water retention.
I hadn’t gone to the doctor’s in about 20 years but had gained weight and started having dizzy spells 5 years ago. I had blamed it on the stress I had at work but thought I better get it checked out. I had a 75 mile commute one way to work and didn’t want to pass out and cause an accident. That is when I the doctor diagnosed me with high blood pressure along with an irregular heart beat.
