Ok. It's more than that. I just wanted to pay homage to my favorite Heroes episode, "Five Years Gone." To be exact, it's 15 lbs gone (and counting!), not 5 kilos. And a few inches off my waist as well.
But that's not the best part! It's the news that i got yesterday, outlined in a small paper sent by PrimeCare, which I shared with anyone who was willing (or polite enough) to listen.
My cholesterol levels (good, bad, triglycerides) are now in the normal range. Yipee! And I didn't even have to take any overpriced anti-cholesterol medication. Take that, Crestor!
I think our manager Frauline hit the mark when she said that my new team's Monday deadline has something to do with this breakthrough. I guess editing four final newsletter drafts in one day does burn a whole bunch of calories. Not to mention running up and down the stairs at home and at the office each day.
I guess this borders on over-sharing again; been doing a lot of that lately. I'm just very pleased with the progress I've made when it comes to my health. And to think all I had to do was eat less and walk more. It's that simple. No secrets. No need to starve myself, or fracture my other shoulder with rigorous workout regimens, or undergo liposuction or stomach stapling. (I know, Ewwww and Ouch!!!)
Seriously! My lifelong experience of frequent illnesses and losing thousands of money to doctors and pharmacies was enough motivation for me. I didn't even need a guy to be inspired. That's why I tell anyone who asks—I simply made a lifestyle change—and got a whole new outlook in the process.
One more thing... Praise the Lord! He truly makes all things possible.
