Denis Walter's 'reality check': July 2

Happy to say I’m walking each day and feeling great for it …… these winter mornings are perfect. Someone commented yesterday that I’d lost weight. Fat chance after 3 days but it was good to hear anyway. Past experience tells me only after about 5 kilos will anyone really start to notice.

This is not about the weight loss anyway…. It’s about looking after myself better. Doctor Ross ins’t concerned about my cholesterol being at 5.8 given the calcium test on my heart showed little chance of a heart attack in the next decade. I would still like to get that down as a personal challenge. Karen will discuss this on air Monday at 2.30p.m. and will give the nutritionist’s viewpoint.  I am wondering what I will feel like in a month. I’m guessing that I will be sleeping less, exercising more and have plenty more energy….. hope so!!!

Also hoping that others will follow including the husband’s of many frustrated wives who want their partners to get tested.
