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 wish I could say I only had 1 bad, too-short haircut in the 80s but I somehow replicated that in the early 200s as well - duh!
ReplyDeleteI've been keeping it basically the same for years now, a little too long in 2017 and during the pandemic but mainly mid-length, whatever my wavy hair wants to do. As long as it's clean, I live with it and expect everyone else to do so as well.
I had a bowl cut that had kind of gotten a bit too overgrown which made it even worse but fit right in in the 80's - especially after I put sun-in all over my head. Paired nicely with my white sportcoat and Jams. Still to this day it's one of those pictures I look back on and cringe but oh well.
ReplyDeleteYou had that haircut too? I was in 3rd grade and everyone thought I was a boy. It was the worst! Then in the 90's I tried short hair again after seeing Jenna Elfman, from Dharma and Greg, look cute and adorable with the short cut. It was tragic and from the back I looked like a boy again.
ReplyDeleteOy, there's been a few, especially as a kid. The worst probably being the Dorothy Hamil haircut that in theory would look pretty, but on me it looked like a page boy haircut and I was too tall and gangly to pull it off. Also the at-home perm my mom gave me int the 7th grade. I looked like I could have been on Shaft.
ReplyDeleteI had an at home perm in like 5th grade. It was awful. My mom did the perm itself well, but it was horrible on me.
