I WAS KILLING MYSELF.....

I am a health personnel and I have been working with a reputable hospital for the past years.Whiles so many people were enjoying a healthy and good living based on my education, I was enjoying ill health and Obesity. I knew the health benefits of most of the fruits and veggies but I never took them due to the cost. It might sound ridiculous but trust me, that was my challenge. I preferred spending money on heavy foods like banku, fufu and rice to buying 2 apples for 6.00Ghana cedis. I could even count the number of fruits and veggies I enjoyed  per year. I was not taking much at all

Well, my perception and attitude changed when I had a whole lot of sickness after a thorough laboratory investigation. I was killing myself gradually with my primitive ideas. My weight was 104kg but was still educating people on Obesity. Can you imagine! My  weight alone made me weak and felt sick always. I started thinking of the benefits of what I take than the cost. I then started with exercise which was no joke but I conquered it. I take a lot of the greens now more than the carbohydrates and drink more water too. Currently my weight is 70kg and I have no sickness in my body anymore. My normal weight is 65kg and I know I’m going to get there very soon. I have the cure to my sickness. They are three keys; water, fruits, vegetables and exercise. It works like magic, just know the health benefits of everything you eat and you will always eat what is best for you.

JOKE THERAPY

A guy was in love with a girl but never had the guts to tell her. One night around 10, he gathered some courage & sent her a text with these honest words... "Doreen, I love you, Plz reply & tell me how you feel." A few seconds later he received a message alert on his phone. He was so scared and too tensed to open it that night so he decided not to check the message until the next morning when he's less tense and in better senses. So he went to sleep. When he woke up the next day he prayed seriously about the message for good news, went about doing his morning chores, brushed his teeth, ate his breakfast took a bath, dressed himself up then climbed into bed and picked his phone to read the message on his phone. This was the response he read: "Dear customer you have insufficient balance to send this message. Please recharge your account and try again".😄😃😄

THE LITTLE VOICE....

I saw a memo in my office about a blood pressure screening  and education exercise  by Life from 30 but I was never bothered  about it. Just because I'm too young(39yrs) to experience  hypertension. The screening commenced and I saw a lot of people participating. I laughed and said to myself,"people are really sick....even my juniors! ".I didn't take part during the whole process till the last day when a member of the Life from 30 team called me. In fact, I felt reluctant but I heard a voice telling me to go in order to prove to her I'm healthy. As courageous as I was, I had my blood  pressure  checked and I didn't believe the readings after four checks. The least reading was 160/121mmHg.The team educated me and ensured that I was seen by a doctor promptly. After several investigations by the doctor, I was diagnosed of hypertension. I'm  on antihypertensive drugs and on lifestyle modifications. My blood pressure is under control now. I believe so much ...
