Six month update on healthier eating


1.    Lost 6 pounds in six months. Hey, it’s not awesome to most, but it is to me – someone who constantly gains 5-12 pounds per year. Yeah, you do the math, I’m headed somewhere disastrous.

2.    My triglycerides, HDL, LDL and Cholesterol as a whole are awesome; in fact all of my blood work is awesome with the exception of two tests – blood sugar and C Reactive Protein. After six years of fighting a battle with LDL/HDL/Tri, I finally win.

3.    I don’t miss meat. When I do, I eat it.

4.    I could be better at this healthy eating – less takeout, more vitamins. Less gluten, more water. Less sugar, more creativity.

5.    I’m growing tired and frustrated with our options, which leads to poor decisions.

6.    An appointment with a nutritionist has been scheduled to combat my woes.

7.    Since our move, we’re sleeping more and are generally pretty stoked about life.

8.    I’m proud of us.
