I'm sorry that I missed this back in July.....CONGRATS! 6 Months is a huge milestone! Just to recap some of the great physical things that have ALREADY happened for you:
- Your blood pressure has dropped
- Your pulse rate has dropped
- Your body temperature of hands and feet increase- Carbon monoxide levels in your blood are normal
- The oxygen level in you blood has increased
- Your chance of heart attack has decreased
- Various verve endings have started to regrow
- Your ability to smell and taste has begun to recover
- Your circulatory system has improved
- You lung function has increased up to 30 percent
- Coughing, sinus congestion, fatigue, and shortness of breath has decreased
- The cilia has regrown in your lungs (They handle mucus, clean the lungs, and reduce infection)
- You overall energy has increased.
Some of the practical things that have happened.....
- You've probably saved $1000-$1500.
- You haven't had to stress over "Do I have enough to get me through the night?"
- Your clothes are lasting longer (seriously).
- You set a stronger, more positive first impression. People aren't grossed out when you get on an elevator.
And most importantly......
everyone you know is really proud of you. Keep up the awesome work Vanflamesfan!
