Today I participated in a Health Risk Assessment on my health care provider’s website. It looks like I did pretty well. My score was 100, but it didn’t give a scale.

The survey appraised my age at 21 just based on my answers, and it was only a couple years off. I think they based their guess off the question “Who do you think is a more attractive singer, Dolly Parton or Avril Lavigne?” I said it was a push—I’d probably take either one.

This little assessment also said that my weight is in the desirable range for my build, but they don’t know that most of my mass is concentrated in the face cheeks, the butt cheeks and the gut cheek.

  • Get your blood pressure tested.
  • Limit your drinking to no more than two glasses a day.
  • Get your cholesterol checked.
  • Exercise 3 to 5 times a week.
  • Add more fiber to your diet.

Items one and three will require a physical, which I’m about to schedule. The whole drinking thing came up because they asked a question about my drinking habits. I don’t know how I’m going to exercise that much when the weather has just recently gone down the drain, and everybody knows my car will melt if I try to drive it to a gym in the rain. Lastly, I have no idea how to add more fiber to my diet. Where do I get fiber from? Cotton candy? Papyrus? Fiber glass? Ahh…I’m answering my own questions. See, my brain is getting healthier already.
