Sorry I haven't posted in a few days. Been busy. Intended to walk Thursday evening w/Sean, but got sidetracked. Didn't do anything Friday or yesterday, either. We are going for a walk this morning after Sean wakes up. It has been beautiful here the last few days. I think spring might finally be making her appearance. My crocus are blooming, and my daffodils are starting to come up. The city did some construction last summer, and I know my flowers have been disturbed, so once they all come up, I'm going to take pictures so I know where I need to plant in the fall. I don't do a lot of flowers, but I like bulbs, because you pretty much plant them and forget them. And if any needed thinned out, the city probably took care of that for me!
Got the results of my blood work for the company physical back:
Chol.: 12/5--234; 3/7--233; desirable <200
HDL: 12/5--41; 3/7--48; desirable >50
LDL: 12/5--167; 3/7--161; desirable <130
Chol/HDL ratio: 12/5--5.7; 3/7--4/9; desirable <2.6
Trig.: 12/5--130; 3/7--121; desirable <150
Glucose: 12/5--119; 3/7--101; desirable <100
TSH: 12/5--1.10; 3/7--2/36; desirable .4-4.5
I am particularly happy that the triglycerides and glucose have come down. I have more work to do on the cholesterol. Besides trying to eat lower fat, I'm going to add flax seed oil, and go back to oatmeal. :^( Got kinda tired of oatmeal, but oh well.
Sean's getting up, so it's time to go take that walk. Enjoy your day!

I need a place to be honest and real. This is it. I'm going to be honest about my weight (!), my eating, my exercising; everything. And it will probably hurt. But I think it will be a good thing.
