Gesundheit!

Random update since I haven't blogged in a while...

Today is health awareness day at work. The HR department invited a group from a local hospital to set up a health fair in the main conference room to teach us employees about food portion sizes, exercise, bone health, the works.

The good news is that I have really good cholesterol readings with total 179 with 69 HDL and and HDL ratio of 2.6. Plus, my glucose is 102 after having a maple scone for breakfast. I really have no idea what all of that means, but the health care professional assures me that I'm in the safe zone and probably won't die of a heart attack (huzzah!).

In other news, 16.4% of me is fat. I'm technically in the "appropriate for fitness" slot, but I'm supposed to start weight training to trim off the excess.

[EDIT: I really have no idea why I posted this. Maybe you, the reader, can share your health stories to make this relevant (shot in the dark)]
