THIS GOT TO HURT (about the author)





i'm gene kelly p. blaquera stands 5 feet 7 inches tall and weights about roughly 200 pounds. if you get my BMI it is about 31.4 and that number means i'm obese, either type 1 or what have you. i am a medical student and i have a sedentary lifestyle. my daily caloric needs for my current resting state is about 2019 kcal. 


 taken april '10 spelunking at sagada, philippines

also, i had my condition checked last june and the results were drastic! 

my total blood fats (cholesterol) is a hundred above the normal value, and my LDL (bad cholesterol) is ninety above the normal value and it doesn't simply stop there. other significant results were a huge increase in my SGOT/SGPT (liver enzymes) and yes even my uric acid (this might explain my joint pains) - the aforementioned could be a shout out of my liver and kidneys "hey kid we are dying".

after further testing - my abdominal ultrasound came out and i'm positive of having fatty liver. so ok, this is really getting serious. but it won't get as life-threatening-serious since this is not the irreversible-alcohol induced type. 

i did some of my homework, lost some pounds, neutralized some stuff and yes i did diet, but eventually i failed. failed-enough to get me sad and get back to the old 200 pounder.
