MatthewM85's Journal, 14 July 2015

In the last year I went back to school to finish my bachelor's degree and really let myself go. I wasn't working out, barely keeping track of what I was eating, and eating crap all the time. Fast forward to last week, I wasn't feeling to well, and decided to goto the Doctor. I was concerned that my blood pressure was up, and that I may have been becoming diabetic.

Somehow, my blood pressure is text book. The doctor himself took my BP 4 times sitting up and 1 time laying down. Each time it was coming back around 118/72 118/74 118/70 120/80, and laying down it actually went down a bit to 112/68 .. So he was very happy with my BP. He did say that regardless of how much muscle i'm carrying, I need to get my weight down. I weighed in at the doctor at 407.5 pounds. I know for a fact that a month ago I weighed probably closer to 415-420. So I am happy to say that I am getting back on track.

My glucose when I went into the doctors office was 100, and that was around 2:30pm, about 3 hours after I had last eaten. So I'm happy thats looking good, however I won't truly know for sure until I get my blood work back this week. I appreciate the support that I have received from this site in the past, and look forward to it as I continue my journey to health.

Welcome back to the fold! Awesome that your vitals are looking good, I've got the same issue. You wouldn't tell that I weigh as much as I do by looking at my stats on paper, short of the whole weight thing. I'm taking full advantage of that by loosing it before my vitals decide to catch up with my weight.
