Today is a new beginning.

Friday, May 04, 2012

where do I start? Well as some of you know my Dr. told me i have high cholesterol and it upset me a little. We, the Dr. and I agreed I would take 3 months and try to bring it down. I hate taking pills and a lot of times I forget to be honest. So I have started to monitor my cholesterol intake, thanks to SP, whom made it very easy, Thank You.

So in all my frustration with this I had realized my husband hadn't been to the Dr. for years, literally. He asked me what I wanted for my birthday and i told him I wanted him to go to the Dr. also. So after a lot of frustration, tears 'discussions', ok fights, he finally agreed to go. well the good Lord was watching out for him. It turns out his triglycerides are almost 700. wow.

We have started walking together almost every night, and eating better together. We went grocery shopping and really liked at everything that was in the foods we normally buy. Needless to say, they didn't go in our cart.. we bought a yonanas machine to make our own 'ice cream' too. Delish. Good investment.

Well to make a really long story short. we were both craving something and we found a bag of cheetos. Yum we thought and dug in. yuk---- after a few bites. emoticon We both realized that our taste for some of our old favs are not there anymore emoticon.

Boy is it wonderful to have a partner that helps you, finally after all the years of trying to cut back. He finally gets it and is willing to help me and himself. emoticon. And in this process I FINALLY DON'T FEEL ALONE ANY MORE. PRAISE THE LORD ABOVE!!!!!!

Thank you all for your support. I finally am feeling like I CAN do it. emoticon
