Ok, world, or whomsoever may be reading this. . .this is me today, overweight but definitely beginning to feel better. Last month I discovered, by a blood test, that I have a vitamin D deficiency. I know most people would say, "Drink some milk and get out in the sun." I have been trying to do both, but this deficiency is much more detrimental to your health than you would imagine. It can cause diseases as diverse as heart problems, diabetes and joint pain off the top of my head. I will post some real research and information in an upcoming blog. I have been taking 50,000 International Units of vitamin D and calcium once weekly for the last month and my joint pain is certainly improved. I am taking meds for high blood pressure which is being monitored. It is time to start seriously exercising and getting my mindset in the place where I am able to overcome the temptation to binge and give in to malaise. I intend for this blog to encourage myself and hopefully help others who may read it as I intend to chronicle my struggles as well as my triumphs. I don't intend this blog to diagnose or treat any health issues, please consult a doctor before you begin any diet or exercise program. Please pray for me as I begin. . .
