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...
A kid's b-day party. woohoo. It's like 2 blocks from where I work though so I'll drop off the little guy and go work for a couple hours then pick him up. Works out pretty well actually.
ReplyDeleteThen tomorrow hubby works until 4 then we'll be off for an overnight mini-getaway.
Great job on the loss baby! I lost 3 and I guess I cannot argue with the fact that doing 6 workouts a week is the way to go now. Oh and those bowler's lunges, ugh. I feel like I lunged a bowler!
ReplyDeleteGood job on the loss (both of you)!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the loss!! Woot! In the past two weeks I've had a mammogram (got my "good boob" letter on Valentine's Day...yippee), saw my primary, and just got back from the dentist a few minutes ago, so I'm ticking all the health checkup boxes for the first part of the year. AND I'm one week pasta free!! That's a true victory for me. Today I'm doing the taxes, running some errands, then we have a hockey game tonight. Enjoy your weekend! xoxox
ReplyDeleteGo, You!
ReplyDeleteLots of computer work this weekend. I have to set my phone alarm to remind me to get up every now and then. And then set another alarm to remind me to get back to work. :)
Way to go on the loss! I spent part of the day at an informational meeting about doing the Susan G. Komen 3-Day Walk and signed up to do it with a team, then did wonderful fun stuff like laundry and shopping at Costco (great place to get in a ton of walking). Really glad to have Monday off and working on some craft projects I've been itching to do. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
