[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Moms- Are you going to the dentist every 6 months? Seeing your PCP at least once a year? Pap smears every 3-5 years ? Mammograms every year (if 40 +) Colonoscopies starting at 45 Exercising at least 75 (intensive) - 150 mins (less intensive) a week ? All these are health maintenance things we should be doing. If you are doing all of these things, what job do you do? How many kids do you have? [/quote] I stay home, kids are in high school and college. Are you going to the dentist every 6 months? [b]No, every year at most. I floss daily. Probably not enough, dental care, right?[/b] Seeing your PCP at least once a year? [b]I have to, I have several chronic diseases. i get bloodwork at least 4 times a year.[/b] Pap smears every 3-5 years ? [b]Yes.[/b] Mammograms every year (if 40 +) [b]Yes, I have a serious family history of breast cancer.[/b] Colonoscopies starting at 45 [b]No, I didn't know it started at 45 and no one suggested I get one at that age. I thought it was 50?[/b] Exercising at least 75 (intensive) - 150 mins (less intensive) a week ? [b]Yes, but still not enough. I should do yoga, weight lifting, more cardio. Will I do it? No.[/b] Eat clean. I should do more of that too. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I try to prioritize my sleep, but I suffer from anxiety and insomnia. [/quote]
