Helen Ivory - June update

Things are going well.  I’m exercising every day – either walking or doing stairs or using my stationary bike.  It’s hard to get to the gym, but I make sure I do something active every day.  My pedometer helps me keep track of how I’m doing.  And I can tell there’s a difference.  I feel good.  I’m sleeping really well and my clothes are fitting better.

In April I attended the Diabetes ID Day at the Chinook Building and had screenings for blood glucose, blood pressure, cholesterol and BMI.  The screening agency sent me a health packet with customized info about my test results and health recommendations.  I made an appointment with my doctor and he and I are going to review the results together.

Check back next month for more on Helen’s progress.
