Active weekend!

I stayed Active weekend playing Raquetball with my husband. We played at least 2 hours on Saturday but I ran out of gas during the 2nd game. I had to get something to eat so I could feel better. I drank plenty of water for sure. According to my pitcher I drunk at least 1/3 gallon of water and then some. Sunday morning we played again for at least 1.5 hours and I had to get home so I could rest up for Kickball later. I had a great time at kickball on Sunday, we won our game and I got to run all the way through the bases this time for a home run.


I strongly see the future of the Healthcare in the USA slowly headed towards a society where you will be rewarded for taking the time to implement fitness in your life. We are headed in the direction of Fitness and people must take the time to be more responsible for their own health. What does this mean for African Americans? Well, they most likely will be double charged for preventable illness such as high cholesterol, high glucose levels, Type II Diabetes, etc... African Americans will have to get on board with being active. I can see where patients will be penalized greatly for not taking care of their own health. African Americans especially women must get on board to taking a more active approach towards their own health. Many people are running to Doctors to get the lapband and or Morbid Obese surgery. What these people do not realize is that since they never changed their habits by implementing physical exercise they will gain the weight back in a minimum 5 years. Hell, one lady on my job had the surgery and last year she was small by December 20098by March of 2009 she was already gaining most of the weight back. Already back in her fat clothes once again. Wow, is all I could say at that one.
Most people are not paying attention to what is going on with Healthcare especially in the Black community. However, the President has already started a website for healthcare in which, all Presidents have had this website but this one is being emailed to everyone.
