    8/9 Just not sure about the fruits and vegies every day.
    Since I have started MFP and exercising I am no longer over weight, no longer have high cholesterol, and no longer have high blood pressure! It is all worth the effort.

    Good grief! I will never know. Have no clue about my blood pressure!

    :sad: I don't know if I can go on without knowing.......

    Ain't got time for this! Somebody is BBQ-ing!

    :laugh:

    6/9 Working towards 8/9..

    I will always have BP issues. Adrenal tumors and lack of adrenal gland cause blood pressure issues. Oh well. 8/9 works for me for a goal.

    8/9 here (still overweight according to BMI). When I started MFP, I was 5/9.(high BP, Obese and no exercise).


    Great that you have improved so much after joining MFP!

    I am 8.5 out of 9. I'd say I get 4 servings of fruits and veggies more often than 5 but everything else is definitely me.

    Five out of nine still leaves me in the sad 97%. I'm so glad I'm on MFP to work on all the rest! Thanks for your post! Great reminder of what we need to be aiming for.

    7/9...I don't exercise as much as I should and although I like fruits and veggies I know I don't get 5 servings every day.

    I only meet one of the criteria. But when I was in the hospital and diagnosed with T2, the hospital did all kinds of tests (including a sonogram of my heart) for another ailment, which they never DID identify. The day I was discharged, the doctor told me she had good news....except for the diabetes, I was one of the healthiest people she ever met. I had a healthy heart, lungs and liver. She said my cholesterol was slightly elevated but nothing to worry about. And that was a year before I started losing weight. I figure I am probably in better shape than I was then. I think I got my mom's genes...she lived to be 90 and would probably have lived longer if she hadn't developed Alzheimers....she had no other health problems.

    9 out of 9! I've also have never had a cavity in any of my teeth. At 43 years old, that's really saying something!

    At the moment *knocks on wood* I THINK I meet all of those...the only thing I might question is the fruits and veggies one, but I eat more fruit and veggies over anything else in my diet, so I am pretty sure I eat 5 servings - never really measured it by food pyramid criteria, though.
