Bump
So, long story short I was hit by a car the other day while out for my am run. I got a trip to the ER (driver fled, cop said he's getting a felony charge if caught) and luckily the only real injuries are a bruised ankle and (I **** you not) a "contusion to the right buttocks", which is on the discharge papers much to the delight of family and friends.
I'm in overall good health but my BP and cholesterol have been creeping up over the years. Less time in the gym more snacking, less time to cook as healthy....
During the follow-up with my PCP today she noted my BP at 142/88 and now wants me on low-salt high complex carb diet, and I'm also instructed to incorporate 16/8 fasting. She doesn't think I need BP meds, but I need to go back for another follow-up visit in 2 months. She is a force to be reckoned with, all 100lbs of her, so I guess Ima try this fasting. I need to overhaul my diet anyway and get back to a stricter gym schedule :hihi:
