The other day while sitting on the, well never mind where I was sitting, I picked up a copy of Good Housekeeping magazine.
Never one to read the magazine, an article did catch my eye on managing your health risks and minimizing heart attacks.
1) Measure your middle - a waist measurement of over 35 inches doubles your chance of a heart attack - oh oh - can I move from a 36 pant to a 34 waist - thats gotta hurt.
2) Know your family's health history - that makes sense
3) Give up cigarettes - no problem there - I hate those things
4) Transform breakfast - make it the most nourishing meal of the day
5) Go for an oil change - now this caught my eye - banish transfats go for good fats like canola oil or olive oil - no more butter on my pancakes - what no more pancakes !
6) Nibble a few nuts - thats good - I love the trail mix from Costco
(Do I have to pick out the chocolate M & M's)
7) Increase fruits and vegetables - think I've been told that a time or two
8) Once a week - try fish - I love fish - don't know why I don't have more
9) Get moving
10 Gradually increase the pace
Sounds pretty good to me
