Today is the last official day of winter here, and last official day of
summer back home in New Zealand.
I’m still, after all this time, having trouble getting my
head around the time zone difference.
An interesting day at work today. We had a ‘Health Event’
going on. A healthy Heart event.
So what was that all about?
With the assistance of a dietician and a couple of specialist
nurses we offered body fat percentage calculation, BMI, blood pressure, and random
blood cholesterol
.
We set our tables up outside the canteen and we were
inundated with folks wanting to have their measurements done. And did we find
any with high cholesterol? Oddly enough not many, But then when you think about
it, it is usually the motivated and healthy who look after themselves isn’t it.
I talk to clients about their health, well I am a nurse and
the question of health does crop up from
time to time.
A few of them are on very high protein, very low or no
carbs. And they are losing weight. Well of course they are, but unfortunately
that kind of eating puts the body into famine mode and it begins to break down
its own tissues. And that is not sustainable.
There is only one way to lose weight and the famous, in the UK anyway, comedienne, Miranda has the
very best diet plan ever.
No need for all those expensive plans or groups
And what is it?
Simple.
Eat less exercise more.
