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...
Chase with milk generally unless it's one of those hard cookies or an oreo, then dunk away!
ReplyDeleteI'm not a milk drinker with my cookies. I've never been able to dunk them because it reminds me too much of having to drink the milk in the cereal bowl when I was a kid, and that would make me gag. Anything that floats in my milk now and I go back to that in my mind. I do prefer crispy cookies to soft cookies, but that's a whole other poll. lol
ReplyDeleteNo milk. I don't drink just straight milk. Hurts my belly. But I will have a mug of black tea with milk, no sugar, with a cookie. And I do the drink, chew, drink, chew, drink thing.
ReplyDeleteDepends on the cookie. Store bought I'm more likely to dunk, homemade I'm more likely to chase.
