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...

2/13/12- Food Journal

Well I was on my own for the day.  This is always the Mr's time of year for random just after the new year projects at work so he worked out this morning and is eating dinner at work.  His looked so good I decided to make it for myself.  Let's dig in shall we?

For breakfast I had a bowl of Special K Blueberry cereal and scrambled eggs (2 whites, 1 egg) with caramelized onions and parmesan cheese.  It held me a good long time!


For lunch I had my tuna fish lettuce wraps (2 tbsp Miracle Whip Light & scallions) with raw veggies and 1/2 tbsp of dip.  A golden delicious apple with apple dip, fruit salad (grapes, watermelon, cantaloupe and pineapple) and a Trader Joe's apple cereal bar.  Iced tea to drink, of course.  I told you, lunch is pretty standard.  :-)


Dinner was leftover beef roast tacos with enchilada sauce and a serving of sharp cheese with a side of brussels sprout and onions.  Iced tea in the background.


I'd show you my snack but that's coming tomorrow so I can't show you!  Tune in tomorrow for a decadent little treat that fits into well planned calories.

    Looks delicious! It's so interesting seeing what real people eat during their weight loss. And I love the fact that you eat real meals, and not e.g. Protein bars. I also like your photograps, thank you! :)

    Oh, I wondered how the Brussels sprouts experiment turned out. Guess you liked them, since they are still on the menu. I agree with the others, your meals look so appetizing!
