Got my bloodwork results back. Not a happy camper - my cholesterol numbers went UP!!!! How the hell did they go up???? I've dropped eggs pretty much completely out of my diet and am so sick of chicken & fish that it's unreal...

Looks like I'm not going to have much choice but to go on statins when I see the doc next week. Not happy about that at all!!!! Soooooo many ugly side effects.

BUT.... my A1C dropped!!! Not all the way down to normal but at least substantially down into the PRE stage instead of the Big D. Since I'm hoping to continue losing weight, I can manage that thru diet so I'm going to refuse meds for it at this time.

All of my other results were perfectly normal.

I'm just at a loss over the cholesterol - I have no idea what I could do different there. I just checked my consumption log & it looks like at least 90% of the time my diet stayed well under the goal. It only went over 13 out of the past 90 days.

Man, I do not wanna go on statins.....
