Summer's over. We're into the Fall season. It's time to renew your efforts to lose weight and eat healthy.
Get Tested and Let Your Numbers Motivate You
Here's a powerful way to motivate yourself to lose all the weigh you want:
Get tested and let your numbers motivate you.
What's involved?
- make an appointment with your doctor
- advise your doctor you're ready to take action to lose the weight
- ask your doctor to order tests so you can find out how your health stacks up right now and where you could be if you lose the weight and eat healthier
Let Medical Tests Motivate Your Weight Loss
Inform your doctor that you are ready to eat right and lose the weight. Ask your doctor to send you to the medical lab to get tested. You want to know how your health numbers stack up today. These test results will be your starting point -- your baseline.
Your doctor may recommend that you have a variety of tests done to evaluate your health status. Here's some of the tests your doctor may recommend:
- blood pressure
- glucose fasting
- glucose tolerance
- cholesterol (HDL & LDL)
- TSH (thyroid)
Once you have your baseline results, these numbers will become a powerful motivator. You'll have measurable goals you can shoot for to improve your numbers, your health and your waistline!
From Lab Tests to Weight Loss Goals
When your tests come back from the lab, meet with your doctor right away to go over the results. Here's some questions you may wish to ask your doctor:
- what do your test results indicate about your health today
- which tests indicate problem health risks
- which test results are within the normal range
- which test results do you need to bring into the normal range
Ask your doctor for details. You want to know what the normal range is for each lab test. Then ask your doctor what you need to do to improve your test results.
Now you've got the hard facts. You've got goals to shoot for. Let your test results motivate you to lose weight and improve your health.
Getting to Work on Your Weight Loss Goals
Okay -- you've discussed your test results with your doctor. You know where your health stacks up today. You are ready to use your test results as motivation to lose the weight for good and improve your health in the bargain.
