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 think I will put up the Christmas lights this weekend as it seems like the right time for it. Won't turn them on until after Thanksgiving but at least they'll be up while temps are a little milder. Have a great weekend everybody!
ReplyDeleteThere have been some deaths and soon-to-be deaths this week, so it's been a bit rough. Because we had mild weather the past couple of weeks a lot of people have put up their outdoor decorations and some have them lit already, which is pretty to look at. I started listening to Christmas music on Nov 7th when a local station started its annual 24/7 for the season. I have no major plans other than a check up today, then I'll meet the hubs at the grocery store to get that done early, then it's house stuff as we watch the snow fly. Since I'm McGrumperson this week, perhaps I can muster up a good cry to shake myself out of it (it's ridiculously hard for me to cry -- which is plain sad!). It's going to be downright cold this weekend and the winds are already blowing. Brrrr.... Have a great weekend!
