Well after about 10 more pounds, 500+ more beers, I am back to get another sleep exam. This time, done by a specialist from Case Western. Should be interesting. I met with this physician today for the consultation. Basically, the test I had in February was ok, but he felt the data was not thorough enough. I know that with being overweight, enjoys drinking beer, and lack of the good fibrous diet of years past has much to do with my apnea. On the positive side, I have been to the gym at least 3 times a week if not more for the last 3 weeks. Prior to that it was like one or two. I really want to shed the tonnage, but difficult as I am getting lazy again with cooking and sticking to a healthier diet. I am not a chow bucket or anything, we hardly have sweets in the house! I drink plenty of water, I run at the gym at least 5K, my meal proportions are smaller than most. I bet it is slugging beers back with the boys that ruins this temple. I am sure being 33 has much to do with it as well. Bottom line, next time you see me tell me to stop pounding brews or make fun of me that I have a fit and gorgeous wife and that she deserves a slimmer piece of meat. Heh.
