Checking my "Health" at work, and being rewarded for it!

I just finished the first part of my "Health For Life" health check, where my height, weight, and blood pressure were measured, and then my blood was drawn for testing.  I'm 6'3", and weighed in at 264 pounds (with clothes, and less than I measured on Saturday).  My blood pressure was 128/70, and my body fat was measured at 32%.  Blood pressure is a little high, but I'm happy to see that I'm officially in the "Healthy" category for body fat.  One percent more and I would be "Overfat," which I probably was before.

I was presented with an AmEx gift card for $25, and will get another after I meet with the local health coach.  I won't get to do that for a few days, though.  After my blood test results are done, I'll answer some survey questions, then I get to meet the health coach.  This is kinda fun!
