so, our insurance company decided that for us to get a "discount" we have to go online and fill out all this stuff and earn points. i guess it is just leveling the playing field cuz the old system was you marked a form that you were either a smoker, non-smoker or smoker trying to quit. the last two options got you the discount. seriously? who is going to be honest, yeah, i am a smoker and i love it and i am never gonna quit and in the time it took me to mark this box i smoked 5 cigarettes! it was stupid.
now we have to log on and fill out a self report form telling our blood pressure and cholesterol and weight and what not. then you have to earn more points by doing certain other things. well, once i filled out my self report i immediately got an email saying i qualified for a health coach! it was so quick after finishing that it never crossed my mind that maybe everyone got one or every 50th visitor to the site got one or something like that. instead i saw it as a sinister message that i was in a bad way!
my coach asks me a lot of questions. most of them about what i currently do, what my goals are and what i am doing to get there. seriously? shouldnt he be telling me how to reach my goals? now, i read a LOT and i know how much you should exercise and what you should and should not eat, i am not stupid. my problem is sticking with a plan. i can cook healthy and eat healthy and even up my exercise but sticking to it for more than a couple months is my problem. and i always know when i am starting to falter....................
there it was, shining brightly in the sun, bone white, on the car seat, a tell-tale sign that i had gone off the healthy wagon that day, there it was mocking me, for all to see, a seasame seed! damn you ronald!
