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...
No plans yet but I do want to do something different. Not sure what different is yet though. Should involve leaf peeping if possible because I think we're nearing the end of the spectacular colors. Have a great weekend everyone!
ReplyDeleteI read that same article about foods tasting different years ago I also read another one that had 10-15 foods from the 80s that have changed, one of which is McDonald's fries (they used to be made with beef tallow when they were are the height of yumminess, but had to stop using due to vegetarian protests).
ReplyDeleteHad an appt this morning that is done, now it's grocery shopping if I can pull the hubs away from the window watching the deck guys. Then I must do laundry that I've neglected all week. I ordered a light fixture from Etsy so need to start clearing out space below to put it up above. LOL Then the rest of the weekend is work..boo hiss.
Have a super leaf-colored weekend!
