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...
It is nice to see pictures from our weekend on these because it reinforces the memories of the things we notice on our walks and I like that. As always the weekend goes by so fast but always nice to go back to some of these and see what we got into!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fantastic weekend! Mine was very busy appointments, cleaning, shopping, work, etc. Busy but accomplished, so I can't complain. The chili I made yesterday in my new crock pot was outstanding! Didn't miss the beans at all because the celery, oddly enough, had a similar texture and was delicious. Now I have lunches for the whole week! LOL Looking forward to the fall weather we're going to have this week. It sure came on fast from where we work a couple of weeks ago.
ReplyDeleteFriday was my one Friday a month I have to go to school, so there was 1/3 of my weekend. Saturday we went to the pumpkin patch and I got some green chiles too (yum). Sunday was just a blah day, I could tell I was coming down with a cold even though I wasn't really sick yet.
