The heart of the matter....

Yeah, so I paid a visit to my darling doc today and had the routine girlie examination. Because it was booked as an actual "physical" there was the small thing of getting weighed as well, and he looked into my ears & throat and took a little listen to my big 'ol heart.

And said words I've not heard before.

"You have a bit of a murmur".

Apparently it's nothing to be 'concerned' about - it's something he'll watch, but said I should not change anything about my habits or my life at all. I can't help but feel a little cautious...and I then asked the words we all know were the REAL (not just me) elephant in the room.

"It's my weight, isn't it?"

"Um...yeah, perhaps".

Awesome. So. Not only am I needing to get myself back up on the accountability train for vain reasons, I now have my HEALTH playing a factor. I hope this will spur on some improved eating again (of late I've been sliiiiiping somewhat severely), as well as the much needed kick in the arse that I need to start my heart pumping a little blood. We'll show this murmur....right?

Um...so uh...could someone give me a boost up to my wagon, please?
