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...

What I'm Reading This Week #23

Happy Friday all!  Did you get schtuff done this week and are ready for some relaxation this weekend?  I admit, we've been having severe envy of New England this week since they are having perfect weather for us.  60-70 degrees with showers.  Don't think I wasn't trying to find ways to get my butt back there for it too but I had an appointment mid-week that I wanted over with so no go for us.  Thankfully, it wasn't as hot as last week so we were able to get out and walk every day which was nice.

Now let's get into:






Eating Foods With Flavanols May Help Boost Your Memory  (I'll take all the boost I can get)



How to Vent to Your Friends Without Bringing Them Down  (I am guilty of this and feel like I'm alienating people.  I guess I'm one of the weirdos that actually wants to hear someone else's vent.)

10 Ugly Truths About Marriage People Hate Talking About  (#1 is friggin' terrifying but I've sadly read about it many times.  Special place in hell for those people.)

How to stop your smart devices from listening to you and recording what you say  (It amazes me what people say yes to when installing crap on their phones.)

He Predicted the Dark Side of the Internet Over 30 Years Ago. Why Did No One Listen?  (More and more it all makes me want to move off grid and homestead never to be heard from again.)

The 48 Biggest Summer Blockbusters of the Past Half Century  (There are some serious classics on this list!)

I don't know if we've got plans this weekend or not, we'll have to see what I'm able to do.  (I'll elaborate more once I get some results.  Just cross your fingers for an all clear so I can put two years of BS behind me.)   

Any plans for your weekend?

    I hope all went well for you! It was a busy week and got some stuff done. Temps were nice by the end of the week compared to the beginning. Hopefully it'll stay that way for the weekend. Have a good one!
