In March I had a physical, it wasn't pretty. Weight, cholesterol, sugar, everything was out of range and absolutely every system in my body was unhappy. Doc told me to lose some weight, eat less carbs, encouraged me to eat steak and more bacon. No breads, crackers, cereals, grits, oatmeals, etc.
The past six months have been so very, very hard. I can point out about a hundred thousand things I should have done but haven't or want to do but haven't. My road to hell isn't just PAVED with good intentions, I've built a 20 lane super highway that is bumper to bumper with negativity. Out of prozac (out of refills) I had to go back to the doctor Wednesday.
Since March, I have lost 10.3 pounds (I'm still not working out. Just walking every day). I stopped eating French Fries, chips of all sorts, vegan ice cream, lunch time cookies, and night time chocolate.
Blood Pressure is lower
Thyroid medication got changed this time 75 one day 50 the next
Cholesterol has gone from 244 to 228 (my good cholesterol is back to the bigger percentage of the number)
This tells me that even though the past six months were fucking hell, I DID GET BETTER
I'm getting a referral to an ENT for the pressure problem I've had in my left ear for the past two years. Things are getting better bit by bit.
