Good News and Bad News

So the good news. My sugar count is good, the labs came back and that looks good.

The good news is that my total cholesterol is down 10 points from last year, but I'm still over 200 but it's an improvement, I went from 220 to 210.

The bad news is my triglycerides are out of control 300.

So she wants me back on South Beach. GOD!!! This is so expensive, it works though but so expensive I just don't have the funds for it, nor I swear the willpower, after a week and 2 days I cave, I can't stand to stomach another salad because I hate all veggies except for salad stuff.

What is wrong with me??? Why can't I pull it together for those last 5 days.

Oh I love V8 Splash but no they are loaded with sugar and you have to eliminate sugar as well and the diet ones are gross.

Dare I even ask what a v8 tastes like? lol. Good luck Dee. I'm trying to cut down on how much food I eat, at least to lessen the calories there. And I think I hate about the same veggies you do, so that leaves us with salads, huh? Bleah after awhile.

Good luck.

So I weighed in today (day 4 into my diet) and I've lost 6.5 lbs. My head is pounding though, I think the cholesterol medicine my doctor gave me isn't agreeing with me too much.

ANyhow, so far so good. I will say I needed somethign sweet so I picked up some sugar free "york" peppermint patties and I'm pretty impressed with their taste.
