HIGH ON LIFE NOT HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE!!!!

Darn it I knew it was some reason my head had been hurting. I've been too busy to diagnose my self. Checked my blood pressure and of course those 3-4 extra pounds from vacation has put me back on BP meds!!!!! It's ok i will prevail!!
 
 I went to work today and did my own little mini experiment. I found out that 80% of the patients I saw were overweight or obese. No I don't work at a weight loss clinic but I do work in the South!!
 
My diet was pretty good. My first day . Although secretly and magically i wish I could have lost 10 lb. Oh well I will  remain positive and keep and stay on track.

Day One Yet Again!

Hello
I  am a 44 physician with four children who has to lose at least 40 lbs. I quess I gained 10 lbs for each child! the truth is i have always had difficulty with my weight. In a controlled setting, ie by myself, I have been able to control with diet and exercise.Needless to say I haven't been by myself for a long time.
 
As a physician I took an oath to do no harm yet i harm myself everytime I eat sugar, fat loaded food which I crave! How can I tell my patients what to do if i don't do it, hince the title -Hypocritic Hippocrates.
 
No matter I will keep trying and start another Day one because it truly is a new day - the only day I have!!!
