Default My Cholesterol

I figured I should get it tested since when I was 279 pounds I was 335 or
350
And my moms chol is very high, well its now 148-180
YAY!!!! I told the receptionist at my General Docs, "COOL! and I drank
heavy cream last night!" and she was like, "WHAT???"
I told her Im on a Low Carb Diet!
Oh Okay she said, in a dumbfounded voice.

BTW Jean? I picked up that stupid "Low Carb Recipe Book"
by Prevention that you were talking about...?
OMG where do they get off?
SUGAR, FLOUR, REAL COOKIES, SUGARED CHOCOLATE!
Uhhh, DURRRRRRRRRR!

I feel great today, Im not able to get freaked out about stuff, cause of the
Buspar but I can still be my
sarcastic Philly girl self!
YAY!

That's great, preesi! I am VERY curious about my numbers. Time
will tell.

Hehe. That would be rather fun. I think we should make a point
of eating something that is traditionally verboten before we go in
for our checkups!

Isn't that the oddest thing? If you bought it, do they have any
explanation for this in the front matter?

That's great too. Things are looking up for you! I could use
some meds myself. Too bad my dr. moved to some inaccessible
location....

to me about the boards!

My moms all freaked out by me being on Psych meds...
She hates ppl who always have headaches or say "I need something
for my nerves!" Or " My nerves are shot!"
AS IF WE ALL LIE or its all in our heads or something!

Good. Prevention's idea of LC is laughable--and does a disservice
to people who think their approach is the real thing.

Oh?! Now that's progress.

A lot of people in the older generation(s?) have a very negative
attitude toward these things. I think they still think a person
can just "buck up" somehow--that it is a character flaw or
something. Others of us see more an more research that indicates
this is chemical/biological, so why not adjust the chemistry?
Needless suffering is not character-building.
