I kind of felt like I was in kindergarten again getting grape juice and crackers as a snack today at work... but I got them for a good reason. Today, we had our wellness checkup at work. It's part of a new Wellness Program that our company is trying to put together. This contractor company, On Site Health Solutions, came in to help do these tests on all employees willing. They check blood pressure, height, weight and do a blood profile for glucose and cholesterol levels.
The best part is that they won't show any of this information to the company - all the results will be mailed straight to my house! Granted, they will send the company an over all profile of percentages on all employees who participated - so they can talk about things to do for the company and around the campus to promote a more healthy lifestyle for all employees!
I'm very grateful for the company I work for, and my 6 year anniversary for employment here is on Sunday August 15th! I'm so proud of this company and everything we've been through this past year with the economy not doing so well - we were driven in all attempts to keep a float amiss all the companies that were failing due to the lows in transportation!
In other news, I am praying that all my results from this wellness check come back positive and then I can move forward with my healthier self! I have already taken myself off of cokes and caffeine for the long haul, and I plan to keep it that way! Also, I had a dentist appointment on Monday and found out I have some very small cavities to get filled to keep my teeth in good shape... so I have that to look forward to! Not really though, I have a tooth that is a little broken, although the filling is still in place. I might have to get a crown on it and I'm not too excited about that at all, or the out-of-pocket money it's going to cost me!
