Adventures In Naturopathy

I've blogged a little bit here and there about my health in the past few months; my discovery of the fact that I had high blood pressure and the cholesterol level of a bacon sandwich, my weight loss adventures and the possibility that I might have had an incident of depression. So, I've been doing what I should since the start of the year. Taking my supplements and herbs. Losing 7Kg (about 15 pounds). Exercising more. Eating better.

It has paid off. I feel great, I look better, my mood is certainly improved, I'm sleeping better, and best of all I saw the naturopath this morning and he said "Your blood pressure is 120 over 80. Excellent!"

Sweet.

Weight loss is an adventure?

Yay anyway! Feeling better is always good. And you looked well to me when we met for,um, water, and Vietnamese food :)

Morgan, thanks - so sweet! There was one beer consumed though wasn't there?....

Michael, thanks pet. I hope so! All this deprivation should stand for some good, right? RIGHT?

And because it's half the calories... ...you can eat twice as much

I'm like soooooo jealous. Nikki and I both think you look just fab. So, are you eating less or purging more?

Paris Hilton.

That is fabulous news, Andrew! I, too, have dropped a few pounds and the mental fuzziness just lifts because, frankly--I feel a bit sassier in my steps. Here's to excercise and sensible eating; the benefits soon become evident. Maybe a weekly chocolate binge is okay, too.

I've given myself a few 'treats' this week Michael G, so I'm not expecting too great a result from this week. You are looking fab IMHO, although you scare me sometimes when you post pics of yourself with a pair of scissors in your hand...

(The real Paris Hilton would never post as Anonymous, that bitch would want flashing neon around her name.)
