Did Statins Help?

Pardon if this is riddled with typos but it's 2:30am. I got my lipid blood test results back yesterday.  I'm going to assume heading into perimenopause years shot my numbers up because nothing has changed food wise (though stress wise it's been astronomical the past few years which apparently contributes as well). A reminder, I was at 264 at the beginning of December and my shuck and jive speech to get my shit together didn't land well with her.  After a talk with my bestie who is on them convinced me (us) with her experience, I relented and agreed to go on them. After almost 4 months on a 10mg dose (the lowest dose available), I'm at 184.  So, I guess they work.  😂   I will also say this is with zero dietary changes and a pretty scattered workout schedule the past two months.  I hope in time when all of the projects are done and we are finally able to focus on ourselves that I can eventually go off of them with hard work.   I'm pleased with...

Le' Goose Egg - Weigh In

Don't know what's so friggin' French about it but ate the same amount of calories (even on high cal day) and burned the same amount as last week when I lost 3 lbs and got nothing.  The Mr. lost 2 pounds though after staying in his calorie range but eating enough sodium to send a horse into ICU.  Don't you love the fairness of this whole thing?

So yeah, I'll be fat forever.  At this rate I should have those 4 lbs off by our Spring trip, if I'm lucky.  I knew last week was a fluke.  Next week Aunt Flo is here so that means another zero despite my best efforts.  Meh.

    I don't know what to tell you. I am sorry though. I really thought last week was the start of something good for you.

    I hope you saved a finger for 'the universe' or whatever it is that gives you the 'ooh hope springs again' one week and then 'psych!' the next week! I'm sorry, Mrs.

    Dang! So sorry to hear that! I really thought that last week was the beginning of you losing again. I'm still keeping my fingers crossed that next week you'll see a loss despite Aunt Flo coming for a visit.

    Not gonna lie--that STINKS to high heaven. The whole 'it's simple math' stuff they try to tell us about weight loss is just plain not true. If it were, we'd be losing at a consistent rate. I hope you're wrong and see a loss next week in spite of Aunt Flo. Something's gotta go in the right direction soon, doesn't it? Doesn't it??

    Boooooo to the goose egg!!! Yep a good double-pump of telling the scale that it's "# 1" is definitely warranted here...
