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...

I got most of my project done and now I need to do some detail work so I'll hopefully finish that up today along with a little decorative project I wanted in there from the time I imagined this bathroom reno.  It's no biggie but I'm not telling the Mr about it either because it'll be the final piece to go in the bathroom after the counter dude leaves Tuesday.  I see cleaning the house in our future.  Boo.  Other than that, no real plans.

You guys got any plans this weekend?
