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...
Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteOff to a high school play tonight. Love the kids, they are all heart.
Colonoscopy prep Sunday, first timer, it.
Have a great weekend!
We are due for some snow and ice overnight and I have a meeting to lead on the other side of town. Yikes. It should be gone by the afternoon, but still. Then it's just a lot of house stuff and getting some returns together to finally get mailed off (procrastinated long enough on that). I have a UTI as well from the test I just did this morning so a visit to the clinic will be in order I'm sure.
ReplyDeleteHave a great lunch and visit with your friends!! Always fun to try a new place.
Busy morning but better late to comment then never right? Just wanted to say Happy Friday and weekend everybody!
ReplyDeleteI always check out time mgt advice but is this seriously their advice for a 30 min morning routine?, "It can be as simple as a quick shower, drinking coffee while catching up on the morning news, a brisk walk around the block, and five minutes of meditation." In 30 minutes? They aren't asking much.
ReplyDeleteStart with the 5 minutes of meditation while you're taking a morning #2, then a 12 minute lap around the hood while your coffee is brewing on your departure. 1 minute to pour and flavor into a travel mug. Take your travel mug with your hot coffee in the shower with the local news streaming on your phone for 10 minutes and BOOM 2 minutes to spare! Bwaaaahahaha!
