Here we are just a few days into the 100 day Heart Healthy Challenge.  I am excited for the opportunity to do the challenge.  To be honest when my wife told me that she had been accepted and that I was the lucky one to be her partner, I did not feel so lucky.  But after seeing how well the program is setup, meeting the other great people associated with the challenge and the resources that we have available to us, my opinion has completely changed.

My wife and I have talked about making these kind of changes off and on for a long time now.  We have even ventured into changing habits, and it has worked for a while, only to slip back into old ways.  I know that my blood pressure is high.  I started taking medication several months ago to control it.  It will be nice to learn eating and exercise habits that will make my heart more healthy.  My goal is to have a healthier heart and be able to stop taking high blood pressure medication.

So here we go!!!
