When healthy eating becomes the hardest thing to do!

My second day in general medicine ward. Did Arterial Blood Gas (needle put in your blood vessel in wrist to measure pH,oxygen and carbon dioxide level in your blood) today on a very old patient. My team so far so good. Ethusiastically teaching me about heart disease, stroke and kidney failure (by firing up zillion questions of course!). Having lunch with 3 top consultants are so intimidating.i feel like a mice. Come to think of it, wah bestnya dah berjaya jadi consultants..ceriaa jeee sentiasa. If i were to be a consultant nnt2, insyaallah, i wanna be the one yg approachable, happy and rileks.haha.boley ke Anna. Insyaallah Insyaallah =)

Almost 90% of my patients are stroke patients.

More than setengah, diabetes+history of smoking+hypertension+high cholesterole.

Stroke as young as 55years old. Jauhkanla.

When i see this everyday in front of my eyes.i would think of my gosh, what are we doing to our body? ( this might sound silly to certain people) but this is true. We just munch all the chips without thinking. Putting a lot of coconut cream in our food. Fry everything with tons of oil. In less than 30 or 40 years, on bed, cant move, cant talk sometimes cant think. a lot of time cant sleep.

Its just too hard to eat healthy food. Even for myself. I binge a lot of carbs. Cook ayam goreng and every other goreng stuff. But it'll become harder the later we try, right Anna. Okay sikit sikit lama lama jadi bukit. Lets try eating healthy everyone, and do some walking (hmm pegi hospital naik bukit melawan angin wellington,kire okay la tu kan hhehe). And yeah, see how we're doing in few weeks~~ =)

p.s: first time entry sungguh ilmiah. Working in the medical ward does make me thinking!
