Numbers are down again
I went for my annual checkup yesterday, and all my numbers are down: blood pressure, cholesterol (bad down, good up), and blood sugar. When I told my doctor I was eating red meat, mayonnaise, and real salad dressing (among other things, of course) her eyes nearly bugged out of her head. So satisfying. -- When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.

Did you tell her what you aren't eating? That's the real key.

She said something about bread having a lot of carbs then was surprised again when I told her one of the local chains had their own brand of bread that only has 6 carbs per slice (and it costs $1.59 and tastes like bread!). Since I aim for 20 carbs per meal, this works out nicely. -- When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.
