Taking Back Control

I just got back from the eye doctor and I had my eyes dilated so I can't really focus on my computer screen right now, so today's post will short and sweet. One of the most positive changes I've seen in my self since taking control of my weight I've noticed That I've started to take more control of other parts of my life as well. The main one being my physical health, I would say that for the past 6 years or so I've been ignoring my physical health. Part of this was because after college I was uninsured, but even before that when I was insured I never went to the doctor. In fact until my first doctor's appointment in September my last physician had been my pediatrician. In January when I switched jobs I started receiving full benefits and it wasn't until last month that I went to the Doctor, my first Dentist appointment was last week, and I saw my Eye doctor today.


For ignoring my health for so long I've actually been really lucky my eyes are still perfect, my blood pressure and cholesterol are good, and I only have two cavities after not seeing my dentist for the past four years, although I do have to have deep cleanings which totally blows. The first half of which was yesterday and all I can say is that nitrous oxide is a wonderful thing and I never want to have to do that again. So here's to taking control again three cheers for me!

P.S. The protein shake before boot camp was a total success!
