Bloodwork

My cholesterol, triglycerides, and bad cholesterol were higher than they should be, but not irreparable. I can fix it, and my glucose was in normal range, so I'm not diabetic.  It's a big fat warning.  One I've had before, but I've outlived my Dad by 8 years now, and I know how much he's missed.  I don't want to miss anything.

On to a healthier, more vegetarian lifestyle.  I will do it slowly, but I can't give up meat entirely, just go to leaner cuts.  Yoga and walking will be my choices for a consistent exercise, and that does not include chores that will yield many calories burned - like deep cleaning, moving furniture, or painting.  I head into the holiday season with trepidation, as the temptations will be plentiful, but I have to change now.  I don't expect to be able to skate by any longer, and the worse thing right now is how much I hurt everyday - from being fat.
