Today’s Workout: Numbers Update

wp-1653321137998

I spoke to my doctor about my blood test results, where my bad cholesterol was up, B12 was low, and the liver levels were off. My doctor wasn’t too concerned since usually my numbers are so good and just said to work on lowering my cholesterol and the rest would probably sort itself out. She did give me a B12 shot and recommend a stomach scan just to make sure everything is all good.

So, I’ll be doing more workouts and weight work while I eat more salads and fish. I honestly have been eating mostly chicken and beef and haven’t had a nice slab of salmon in a long time. I used to eat that at least once a week. I have my appointment in a few months for another test and I’m hoping I’ll be 10-20 pounds lighter and have impressive numbers again!

And I’m not dieting today. Heck, after that snow storm (and shoveling for over an hour to the point where I almost passed out) I’m taking the week off from working out. But that doesn’t mean I’m free for the day since I had to see the doctor about my latest blood work and not only is my bad cholesterol down, it went from 173 to 152 since I started Saxenda. The doctor said it was the best set of results he’d seen all week!

So, I treated myself to my favorite dinner from my favorite pizza place, New York cheesecake, and some little cookie brownies from Trader Joe’s. I didn’t eat the whole ziti, there are at least two meals in there for me since the Saxenda keeps me from really over indulging. All I needed was a little bit to feel special today.

And yes, that is a Deadpool plate. Because I’m a geek.
