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 do plan to sleep in. So looking forward to that. Have a great weekend everyone!
ReplyDeleteIt's a typical weekend of doing some chores and going to work. It's going to be hot and blazes for the next week or longer, so I'll be inside as much as possible. The grass is back to being brown again so it's a visual reminder that we're in the thick of summer. As a kid I hated this month because I would start stressing about the start of school and the fear of socializing and not fitting in at all. Took me all the decades to learn how to appreciate the day and live in the moment.
ReplyDeleteHave a good sleep-filled weekend!
Hope you're sleeping in!
