It seems my "Word of the Month" is "Friggin" at the moment - LOL
Well I went to the local GP this morning to receive my annual prescriptions for the Pill and asthma medications. Another new doctor, another lecture about 'have you wondered about exercising???' Yes I do wonder, alot, its fun, but 'wondering' doesn't burn calories sweetie! I got lectured about exercise, diet, healthy eating and then I told her I've been on WW since New Year and she seemed to not believe me. She well and truly didn't believe me after my blood pressure reading of 146/78. Farrrrrrrrk. I couldn't even blame my boys as they weren't going bonkers as per usual. After the past two weeks of knowing where I stand here, I shouldn't be surprised either. Bloody 146 though. How many calories can I burn when I head butt my head on a very solid brick wall???? Will that lower my blood pressure??
I sit here crying, not knowing how to lower this friggin' blood pressure. Yes I know, more exercise, less eating. And she's put the wind up me, telling me all about strokes and how 'the pill' really isn't helping me health wise. Yes it is! Its stopping me having more children that will drive me around another bend!!!
Frigggin, Friggin and more Friggin!
Try not to be upset I know its stressful but did this doctor talk to you about medication or anything besides weight loss that can help reduce it? It sounds like the doctor told you what can happen if you have high blood pressure but not about other alternatives. If you are worried I would go and see someone else for a second opinion.
ReplyDeleteRe: Friggin - I personally love the word except when my 9 year old repeats it I know I have been loving it to much :)
