hard 2 months ago

I have been taking the pill but not eating really anything special, I used to do so well on this.
I hope I get back on track and lower it by my next test. any good ideas?> books? sites?
it is so hard to get through the day without having some cheese or butter, or white bread…
all that stuff I am not supposed to have.



gotta try harder 2 months ago

New dr wants me to take a cholesterol lowering drug that starts with a Z. I picked it up today.
He said my numbers are all bad and I will get it checked again in 3 mos.
He agreed that last dr did not have me on the right meds.



notes 3 months ago

since I have not been very good on this,. I thought daily notes would help.
taking fish oil
taking vitamins.
walking or something for 30 mins
pilates( makes.
since it is morning, I will make notes later on today-
well… I took my sigh oil, ate bananas, organic burrito, lemonade, cheerios, ice cream( a tad)
cookies, m and m’s
swam



eat right, lower my cholesterol 3 months ago

have not been trying on this at all.
I need to walk, eat right and take my fish oil. I forget all about this with trying to work, having the kids home with me… often not getting a good sleep…
I guess today I can make a sign for all the stuff I need to remember for ME.
I do so much but the days fly by!



new choices 5 months ago

I am changing my Dr!
I went to my Gynecologist and told her how things have been going with my treatment. ( and what the dr said last week that made me feel really weird)
I am changing to another dr today.
He made fun of me and embarrassed me.
It is time to walk away!/
the tricor, which I have been taking for a week is making me really red and my skin itch. I am not going to take it anymore… I am going to instead do what I know what will work. run, eat right… all that.
I have been sedentary I know since my dad died… I have really been not trying.



WENT 5 months ago

I have started the tricor, it says stay out of the sun and it says I may feel dizzy.,
I am glad the appt is over with. He did not say too much, just come back in 3 mos.
wish me lots of luck in lowering my weight and these numbers.july 25 i guess I need to make an appt for then for blood test, then go in and see the doc,
wish me lots of luck,,, mainly i need my routine to be good again.



cinnamon pills 5 months ago

i am starting to take these. easy, just have to remember to do it now.



well, 5 months ago

i started back up in taking the fish oil tabs morning and night.
eating almonds, I like my new cook book, it has helpful info in it.
I have not tried any of the recipes yet. My kids never like anything I make and cause such a fuss… guess I will be cooking 2 meals. what a lot of work.



new steps 5 months ago

I bought a cook book and grape juice… it makes me burp.
almonds with cinnamon are good.
i have not taken the cinnamon pills yet.
i also bought some special yogurt with plan stanols( spelling)
you can drink one a day.
anyway… i feel bloated from the oatmeal!



today 6 months ago

well… they wont renew the tricor till i see my dr… some pre approval thing for my insurance.
and… i bought some grape juice, some almonds and cinnamon pills!
also some green tea.
i guess I could go for a walk right now, but I feel so depressed walking in my neighborhood. I am glad we are moving soon. the farms are getting sold to developers and it is so ugly and sad.
greed and ruin.
