Besides diet and exercise, there are opportunities to take proactive tests to look for things no blood test will reveal.

Manage your health like you mean it.

Calcium Score Coronary CT scan, just to be safe

My appointment is in an hour at 630am. Photo: Last picture i took before bedtime last night – just to know what i should expect this morning.

 

Calcium Score Coronary CT scan, just to be safe.

Why?

History of heart disease in my Family.

This scan can detect plaque buildup inside the heart – something that never shows up on bloodwork results.

When you hear of healthy, active people having heart attacks, this is generally why.

Enough already, stop

Enough of the poor eating. Take a stand. Eliminate poor foods. For good. Photo from Twitter yesterday.

 

In two more clicks you’ll be at jungle jeff – the work blog – and when you get there you’ll see a post more closely themed to here, Lane 8.

The reason the content is there and not here is simple.

While i compartmentalize mind-body-spirit-work-hq in five distinct website blogs, the reality is quite compelling – everything we do influences everything else we do.

Meanwhile, this morning’s thought here is this: i’m eating like i mean it to improve my health.

Which is the paradox of “diets to lose weight to be more healthy”. Diets require unattractive restrictions, unnatural eating habits, avoidance of certain foods you have loved eating your entire life, like sweets.

i gave up processed sugar but i did not give up sweets.

What the?

Fresh fruits.

i eat a ton of it, daily.

Confirm commitment?

Today, can you eat a little more deliberately, exercise in a way that’s sustainable for a lifetime, and go to bed early enough to get your optimal sleep (somewhere around 8 hours)?

Can you?

When we push ourselves daily, our resolve grows and our spine strengthens with courage and determination.

In the absence of daily boundary-pushing, we are left with nothing to stiffen our spine.

Coach yourself today to do something scary.

Even in failing, you’ve conquered fear.

Did you floss last night before bedtime?

Last night’s dinner. Can you imagine not flossing after dinner, for a lifetime?

 

Did you floss last night before bedtime?

What if you did?

PS, Yes, i know it takes time and effort, and at the end of a long day, we’d rather skip the time and effort required.
