My HMO has a wellness program that pays members a lot of money for participating. When I first heard about it last year, I didn't bother signing up, thinking the time commitment would be prohibitive. But yesterday I changed my mind. The requirements turned out to be simpler than I thought. All I had to do was fill out a health assessment (already done!) and then participate in three different health education programs via their website.
My health assessment is a boring read, no surprise there, seeing as I've been on my best behavior due to being pregnant. Thanks to my walking buddy I've even been getting plenty of exercise. The only criticism the website had for me was that I didn't eat enough fruits and vegetables, but that's mainly because I haven't been eating much, period. I can't eat as much per meal as I used to because of the baby butting up against my stomach, so ideally I should be eating 6 small meals a day, but seriously, who has the time to eat that often? I shrugged. Oh well, I'm just doing this for the financial incentive anyway, I thought. But today at lunch I avoided the burger and fries and picked up a tuna sandwich and orange juice instead. Go Hawthorne effect :P Tonight, while watching Kevin play Animal Crossing  ...Alex: Wanna know what would make this game more exciting? Kevin: What? Alex: Earthquakes and fires. 0 Comments: |
