A while back my doctor suggested that I get my cholesterol checked since I’m starting to get old. I don’t think I’ve ever had that tested before. It took a while but I finally got around to it. It’s a relatively easy test considering all the other diagnostic tests that can be done on a human being. The only mild annoyance was having to fast for ten hours before they take your blood sample. Even then, I was asleep for most of those ten hours so it wasn’t even that bad. Actually, I was more bothered by the fact I had to wait thirty minutes at the lab before they called my number.
Anyways, I got my results back and everything is within the normal ranges. I was quite happy to see that since I sometimes don’t eat the healthiest choices out there. I’m trying very hard to eat better on a daily basis. I’ve done a great job at reducing my sugar consumption. I don’t eat candy and chocolate nor do I drink sugary sodas. Yeah, I slip sometimes and eat like 20 Timbits but that’s not a normal thing. I’d like to tackle fat consumption next but that’s going to be a bit tougher.
Good Job Erwin! And you posted this on my Birthday! 🙂
