My health

This morning I had my health check up at work. I've had a lot of requests for the results, and like I always say, my personal health details are everyone's business. So here goes . . .

Since my last (and first) assessment three months ago I've made a bit of progress.

First up, the good news - my weight dropped from 101kg to just under 98kg, and my body fat from 34.3% to 31.1% (that still sounds like a lot though). I lost 4 cm off my waist, and my aerobic fitness was up.

The bad news was the my blood pessure (120/90) was roughly the same as last time, and my cholesterol (5.6) was actually slightly up. So still got a bit of work to do, mainly in the area of diet. Nigel thought I was on the right track though, and said the progress I had made was good so that's encouraging.

I'm not sure when our next check ups are but I really want to keep improving - especially in the body fat percentage, that's kind of embarrassing.
