besubversiveThere is a statewide initiative to improve health awareness among employees of the state. Basically, we get $100 if we fill out this online health survey and then get a biometric screening. I did my screening today.
Blood Pressure: 109/78 (Ideal is below 120/80.)
"Bad" Cholesterol: 151! (Should be under 200. The last time I got it done, maybe 3 yrs ago, it was 199.)
"Good" Cholesterol: 49 (Should be over 40.)
Glucose: 85, non-fasting. (Should be under 140.)
The dude who went over my results with me tried to throw me some shade about BMI and I was like, "Yeah, okay, whatever." Fat =/= inherently unhealthy and I consider my numbers Cold Hard Proof. I mean, supposedly I am OBESE which always makes me think Obtuse Beast. Fuck that! My body is THE BOMB.
