I got the results back from my blood tests. Everything is fine, except for my cholesterol is high. I think I remember them saying I had 221? but shouldn't be over 200? And my other "bad" number was 143? And shouldn't be above 120?
So now what do I do? I was told to reduce my fats and take the test again in 6 months. I don't eat fat itself (always leftovers for the dog!), and don't do a lot of dairy cuz I'm lactose-cranky (all right, I love butter on my veggies, but that's all). Hubby says HAH YOU DON'T EAT WELL (to which MY thought is AND you) and he's threatening me with sprouts and salad as every meal. I do try to not eat chips unless there is company or I'm PMS-y, and I don't eat a lot of candy cuz it makes my teeth itch. I don't eat much bread or other grain products cuz I'm allergic to THAT too.
What's next? Living on sprouts is RIGHT OUT.

for a week, write down what you eat. It may be that you are eating something that is fattier than you think.
excersize. I know it is a dirty word, but it does help.
that is all I can think of for now. The drive last night was suck.
