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...
Stores look like their typical amounts of people from what we can tell when we drive by, with Meijer being the exception as that is really packed in both parking lots. We went to the apple orchard as they close for the season this weekend and we got there right at 9am when they opened and were out of there 13 minutes later. It was nice to look inside as it had been a couple of years. Then we grocery shopped and will go back out one more time in about two hours to go get our booster shots (and me the 1st of 2 doses for the shingles vaccine). The rest of the weekend will be laundry, going through the mountain of packages that are arriving today, and going to work.
