Increase Exercise-Uggh!
Isn’t it ironic and unfair that I was just complaining about how much I hate to exercise and only a couple days later I hear from my doctor that I need to increase my exercise, as well as watch my diet, and come back in three months (instead of six) to have my cholesterol checked again.
Uggh!
The universe sure has a twisted sense of humor.
My cholesterol is up 20-something points from six months ago, all in LDL (the bad cholesterol) which just makes it worse. It’s still only 202 total, but with all the heart disease in my family, that’s too high. I’d like to believe it was all that really stressful workday I had the evening before the test, but truth is that it’s probably also related to the cheese nachos, junk food, pizza, and ice cream I eat most of the time.
So today I took one long walk (1 hour) and one short one (30 minutes). And last night I did that dreaded exercise video workout again. It hurts less the second time around, I discovered. I even got fruits and vegetables at the store today. And ate healthy for 2 out of 3 meals today. :weak smile:
Still I hate exercising and I miss Ben and Jerry’s.
