What a difference a few weeks makes

Here is yet another clear example of what is going on with my body.

On 11/11/08, I had a health screening. My BP and pulse were:

BP: 133 / 96
Pulse: 87

The above are indicative of borderline mild hypertension -- one sign of bad news if you do not take some immediate action.

Today I walked into CVS and took my BP:

BP: 109 / 62
Pulse: 71

It makes me feel like crying with joy. These numbers do not lie -- they are the best possible witness that exercising and healthy eating makes a difference.
