Which do you want first? *L* Actually its all good. Its good information. Its good to know. Because knowing is half the battle. (G.I. Joe)
Bad news… well not that bad but bad cause I gotta take another drug. Lipitor. Hello. You know what that means. Yup, high cholesterol. I couldn’t just be high, had to add the cholesterol. So what is the doctor saying my arteries are clogged? Semi clogged. He didn’t say that. He said your numbers are high. I need to step up on the workouts. Sir, yes sir. I need to go to the gym on weekends. Too much sleeping in, ya’know. LOL And half the time I’m up anyway so why not get my behind to the gym? Yeah, I’ll work on that…..weekend mornings to the gym, what a concept…. not like I haven’t done it before. I’ve been such a slacker. I average 4 days a week need to up it to six, huh. I shall make a note of it… duh… I just did. I need to just do it.
Ok the good news… I ain’t a diabetic. People have been telling me that. My sister especially. She works for an internist. She deals with diabetics everyday. When I told her my doctor had me testing my glucose 4 times a day she said “you’re not a diabetic, for one its not in our genes and YOU have thyroid issues which pretty much could mean anything & everything.” Ok, thank you for your support.
Testing my blood sugar has been very educational for me. I can see how food effects me and it makes more sense. Like fat accumulation is not enough or something. *L* But I’ve been trying my best to stay away from desserts. Dessert first freak that I am.
I’ve been to Olive Garden and I didn’t even order Tiramisu. Good girl. I ate No Sugar Added Rocky Road! Bad girl. LOL It says no sugar added, BUT it has chocolate covered nuts in it….mmmmmmm there’s your sugar and marshmello cream, probably more sugar. THEY did not add sugar BUT the stuff they put in it had sugar……Hmmmmmmmm.
I keep telling myself I UNDERSTAND the correlation between the sugar and my health…..SO WHY do I eat dessert? Addiction. I need intervention. Oh, the doctor is the intervention. DUH. He gives me drugs. I should be grateful? LOL
Nah, its all good. I really do understand the consequences because I am a product of it. Live and learn. Eat right or die, you know. Its all about choices. I should tattoo dat on my hand so I can see IT everytime I feed my face. Maybe in fine print on the side of my index finger….
I lost 2 lbs! woohooo only 28 more to go. LOL
