Wake up call

 Hi peeps…

So I went for the health check-up which I mentioned here and suffice to say, if this was a JAMB examination, i'd be spending another year at home without admission.

Not good at all.

Now, I’ll be the first to admit that I’m not a gym rat or the like but I know for a fact that I’m not exactly living a sedentary lifestyle either. However, from the results I was given, it’s pretty evident that I have to improve my exercise game and make some drastic lifestyle changes.

Apparently, my blood pressure is not yet in critical territory. Still, it is in the high range, blood sugar level is higher than normal, and given other factors as well (weight, BMI, and hereditary issues) it turns out that I’m at high risk of getting the same diabetes shit later if changes are not made. Bruh!!!

It was alarming (to put it mildly) and an urgent wake-up call.

Apparently, this diabetes shit can creep up on you without any symptoms and hit you when you least expect. It's funny cos I know my dad had to do the same things when he had it and yet somehow, I’ve been there ignoring this very important and critical health matter.

Changes HAVE to be made.

I’ve had a meeting with Chioma and we’ve kind of worked out a plan to lose weight, exercise more and improve our diet. It won't be a piece of cake but I’m determined to see this through so help me God.
