A real quick post here.
I actually have to get my ass moving and off to the mechanic to get my wife's passenger side door fixed. The window no longer works and our solution of lots of duct tape keeping the damn thing closed just seems, well, lame.
Meanwhile, last week I had my physical and it turns out my cholesterol is 390, which I guess is pretty high. I'm like, oh, nothing about diabetes in the blood test?
My dad and several members of his side of the family have diabetes, and occasionally I wait for that hereditary shoe to drop.
So far, nothing indicated there... regarding that, at least.
But, my cholesterol levels, well, that's another story.
So, the Doctor's freaking out, more or less, and I'm now eating lots of Cheerios, which I'm told is some sort of cholsterol scrubber. Curiously, it occurs to me now, this nutritional fact was pointed out to me by my wife and her mother, but not my nurse practioner who did my physical.
The NP did go over dietary change stuff, though.
Also, I've been off Weight Watchers online for a couple months because I really wasn't doing anything with it, so I figured, save the money.
But with my wife now weighing significantly less than me (she's in the lower 150s), and also this cholesterol crap, I'm trying to psyche myself up to lose some more weight again. Besides, I never hit my target weight of 140 and my 30-year high school reunion is in three months (shut up!). The closest I got to my target weight was, like, 156 lbs.
Last Thursday, before we went out of town, I weighed myself and I was 170.5, merely 1.5 lbs below where I was when I originally joined WW last year (which was around this time of the year).
I weighed myself Monday (my former weigh-in day) and I was at 170.
So, half-assedly, I lost .5 lbs this week.
More to come.
Besides, my cereal's getting soggy.
