Health Screening

Went for the free health screening provided by First Tri Club.
Got an ECG and Chest X-ray done.
Everything is normal.
Only concern is my BMI and high blood pressure which puts me at moderate risk.

Doctor's first question?
Why do you want to participate in OSIM Triathlon?
Is that a trick question???
He is definitely thinking that I am in no shape to take part.
However he does not seems overly concerned once I told him that I have completed my NUS Biathlon in February.
After checking my pace for my run and bike, he is happy that I am there to complete and not compete.

The words that got stuck in mind was "calories deficit".
This is the umpteen time I have heard of that word.
But seriously do something about it.
