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...

How about you?

    Whenever that first bar of The Star Wars theme kicks in I just can't help but feel like a little kid again.

    Planes Trains and Automobiles when Neal is on the train and memories of Del come to mind with the Power to Believe song playing in the background. There has yet to be a time when I have not cried. The loneliness of the holidays in addition to the actual scenes really jumps out at me.

      You know to have a tissue handy while the dogs look at you going "what's her problem?"

    One of my favorite all time movies is Better Off Dead. Pretty much any scene from that one. My high school best friend and I could quote that movie almost verbatim. I love the newspaper boy "TWO DOLLARS" and the scene where Lane's buddy is telling him "go really fast and if something gets in your way, turn".
