On a Health Note


Well, today I had my Life Wellness personal assessment where I received the results on my blood pressure, cholesterol level, body fat %, stress level, cancer risk, substance use and nutrition status. I would like you all to know that I have the health age of a 26 year old with the potential target age of an 18 year old. I am just happy that all of those delicious foods and beverages have only taken away a year of my life.

Here’s the good news, my coronary risk is low, my cancer risk is low, but my nutrition status is undesirable (don’t tell Katie Davis), so my new goals involve eating breakfast and fruits and veggies for lunch. I also get a free pedometer because I am now part of a health study (which is the second time in my life, the first being the time I got my wisdom teeth taken out for free as long as I tried a new drug/painkiller; I felt like a lab rat).

My blood pressure was 136/80, a bit high, but it is usually 120-125/80, I must have been nervous. I have a blood cholesterol level of 142 and my triglycerides are desirable. I had to fast for 12 hours before the tests were run and my elevated blood sugar level was at 90; my blood is sweet.

I am also 24% body fat. I didn't need a doctor to tell me that. On a better note, all of the ladies around me scored worse. They are skinnier, but have no muscle.


I have decided to eat vegetables, wheat toast and Hummus. Wish me luck with my endeavors.

Will It Blend? - iPod

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KB52MjaviF4

Hello World, I've been away for a couple of weeks, just some problems at home and I've been off the continent for research. On a health note, don't trust every berry that you see.

Get Ready for a blend of a life time.
Personally, I have been waiting months to be able to eat and drink RAM, Motherboards and iPods. In an attempt to really promote this blender without actually owning one, I have been thinking of its practical uses, in comparison to tradition blender, which, as we know just make smoothies and shakes. *Before you read on, be sure you have watched the video, you don't need volume so go ahead and watch it at the office.*

LIST OF PRACTICAL USES of the BLEND it all BLENDER:
-You no longer have to pit the peach
-It will put disposal's out of business

That thought has changed this blog post from promoting the blender to it becoming a disposal. I think Mr. Blend It should make his blenders into sink disposal's. If the term disposal is new to you, then I cannot help you and you should not be reading this post. Back to the new idea, so with a new Blend It disposal your sink would no longer back up. Previous problems associated with potatoe and banana peel's will virtually go away. There are thousands of reasons to put a BlendIt blender under you sink. Think of it, chipped spoons would no longer exist because the would get blended up. Your kids would learn not to put their hands down the sink. You wouldn't have to flush fish down the toilet. And of course, if the blender broke, you could just use the disposal.

I also need to add that the original idea behind this post came from a big rumbler fan, Amber Blakesley. I get thousands a day, so don't cry if your ideas are never posted, but if they are good ones like this, then I have no choice.
