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...
It was a great weekend. Very refreshing and relaxing with some strenuous paddling mixed in and we ended with a gorgeous sunset. Can't beat that!
ReplyDeleteLooks like a very nice weekend you had.
ReplyDeleteI had a half day on Friday so it feels like I went on a vacation! My youngest is home so we hit the golf course right after work. Had plans to hang with a friend but found out I was getting a surprise overnight guest. My bro was on his way home from a motorcycle ride. Great to see him but he doesn't really converse. A long series of me asking random questions. I always wonder what those introverts are thinking. Got in the pool for a bit on Saturday then got the grays washed away and haircut. Impromptu barbeque followed with my son's friends stopping by. Yesterday I chopped down a forest in my yard and finally painted my lion sculpture. Back into the pool and now it's today :(.
Have a great week!
It looks like you had a great weekend! I love the wreath, what a great gift idea!
ReplyDeleteThat hose wreath is pretty cool. It sounds like you had a great weekend. Saturday was the boy's bday party, and Sunday I mostly just hid in the house from the heat. It was 107.
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like an AWESOME weekend!! Even I got excited looking at the Christmas picture! =o) This is just what you needed and I'm thrilled that it was so nice for you. What a great way to refuel and recharge.
ReplyDeleteMy weekend was good. Ran some errands with the hubs, cut the lawn before it got too muggy, and took the dogs out to the country while the hubs took them on walks in the neighborhood so they were happily tired. They sure did love their cucumber and watermelon treats. And for the first time in easily over a year I got my first 8 hours of sleep Saturday into Sunday. That was enough to keep me smiling, even though I still needed an afternoon nap. LOL
I needed to see this post! You had a beautiful weekend and I'm happy for you.
