Chapter 14N.T. is 35 years old and loves his job as a computer programmer. He’s gained about 15 lbs since he graduated from college, but he thinks that’s probably normal. He loves eating out and is very glad he can now afford to do so 2 or 3 times a week. He never really enjoyed sports and generally enjoys sedentary hobbies like reading, playing board games, and watching movies. At his last physical, his blood pressure was 150/95 mm Hg.
