I had my annual appointment with my primary care physician yesterday. I had gone in two weeks ago for my fasting blood draw and was anxious to hear what she had to say. And, you know me, I had her write down last year's numbers and this year's numbers before we started that part of our fabulous conversation.
The blood work report:
Total cholesterol (which was fine) is down 56.
Triglcerides (which were scary high and I promised they would go down because she wanted to put me on meds) went down 142!
HDL (good cholesterol) is up 8 (needs to go up a little more,
still...hello, salmon! and I'll keep on with the flax and chia - which I
already love!).
LDL (bad cholesterol - which was fine) went down 26.
Gotta ♥ this!
I really was a little worried that I'd be the one person that could lose 80 pounds in a year and go to the doc and be told it was time for medication. Nope. Not a chance!
The "I'm a Rockstar" was waiting for me at the staff breakfast this morning with the "Amazing!" card. What a great reflection of how AMAZING I feel!
