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...
Ugh, yeah Waxwork 2 was terrible. They went for extra campiness on purpose which didn't help at all. Sorry for subjecting us to that!
ReplyDeleteWaxwork 2 was pretty awful. Sad really considering how much I like the first one.
ReplyDeleteYesterday was wet and cold. We are definitely getting into the season here now. Overall a good day.
We took a ride up to Vermont. There was some nice color starting, but nothing earth-shattering. Plus it was overflowing with tourists because of the long weekend. But it was still a nice, lazy, peaceful weekend! The Mr has very good taste - your flowers are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteOh, what pretty flowers! I love the fall variety and those rich colors. Says Autumn really is here! What a sweet pea the Mr. was to surprise you!
ReplyDeleteAs I've been typing I've had both Fed Ex and UPS come to my door with some Christmas gifts I shopped for. LOL I said I was wrapping early this year and I mean it (snaps rubber band on wrist as a reminder). =o)
I spent some time with my uncle yesterday which was really nice. The weather held out well for me so there was no driving in the rain. Today is quite warm and humid and very sunny. I saw two squirrels in the backyard with HUGE corn cobs in their mouths as they scampered off by the trees and started munching. Cracked me up! I have a feeling the hubs is going to want to cut the lawn today because it's supposed to rain later this evening. Tomorrow it's in the 70's, then we drop into the low 50's (possibly high 40's) the rest of the week. That's a big ol' temperature swing by over 30 degrees.
