Stroke Risk!
Today a cardiologist told me not to exercise because it could be me at risk for a stroke! Imagine that no exercise for me, but health comes first. My blood pressure has been very high, the reason for my visit. Today it was 190/110. So I got more medication and had an ultrasound on my heart. Will know more in 2 weeks.
50 days unitl I'm 50!
Well now the biggest challege starts, losing weight by my 50th birthday. Besides the goal to lose by a certain date it will fix a lot of my health problems, especially the blood pressure.
Other lifestyle changes that can help to reduce blood pressure include stopping smoking, reducing stress, reducing alcohol consumption, and exercising regularly. These changes are effective when used alone, but often have the greatest benefit when used together.
