I'm celebrating!

I went to see my GP today to find out what my semi-annual blood tests showed and:

•My cholesterol was high where it should be (HDL 58) and low where it should be (total 180 and LDL 80-something!)!

•My fasting blood sugar was NORMAL (99! It was 111 six months ago) and my A1C was normal as well (6.1 --- it was 6.7 six months ago)!

*I weigh 10 pounds less than last check-up (I'm down to 160 lbs!)

WOO HOO! The diet and the exercise seem to be working! Of course, there are also all those pills but that's a small price to pay to get results like these!

It was worth is and will continue to be worth it!

I'm still having trouble following an eating schedule but I'm getting better at judging carb allowances and the like! If only I could get to LIKE exercise! LOL
