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...

Moment of Truth- Weigh In

Well I kept my calories so they evened out to about 2250 instead of 2300 this week and I'm down 2 lbs.

    Antiquing sounds like a good way to spend the day.

    I'm glad you saw a loss this week. I hope the continuation of your new plan works out well for you.

    Great job!! Calorie cycling/adjusting is kicking in! WOOT!
    Enjoy the day! If you see any salt boxes or coffee grinders (or old pyrex, the bowl sets that came in colors), feel free to think of me ;) hehehe...

    Happy St. Patty's Day and have fun antiquing! My hubby is sick, so I'll be trying to make myself work around the house in spite of BEAUTIFUL weather outside. At least I got in a 3 hour hike yesterday.

    Excellent! One thing that may also be helping is the small fluctuation in calories each day. I seem to do better doing that than hitting my same target day in and day out.
