Well, September is over and that means the end of Health Month. I had an appointment with my new physician last week and a follow-up today. My mother would have been so proud. My blood test results show that I have great cholesterol levels and my thyroid, kidneys and liver are healthy. I did discover that I have anemia. So it's off to buy some iron supplements. I also was told that I have a slightly elevated triglyceride level, which is fatty cells floating around in my blood. So I guess that means I need to cut back on the chocolate bars and olive oil.
My appointment today was a long-needed 'women's health' check-up. As a newbie to this 'taking care of myself' business, I equate it to not being any worse than an awkward date. :D When my doctor told me not to be nervous when she brought in the devices, I laughed and said, "actually, I was still thinking about my triglyceride levels."
Also this month, I've continued taking dance classes which I think, in the long run, will help my core strength not to mention just help me loosen up a bit when it comes to taking my physical self too seriously.
I am SO ready for Fashion month!!
