Well...

Should be an interesting week. I get to call and change my appointment with my Dr. My cholesterol results were high so they want to see me to talk about my results. I don't know what they are yet as they didn't say in the message they left. To top it off they keep leaving messages on the phone I've asked them not to leave messages on and never approved for messages. Rather annoying.

I've had higher cholesterol since getting married. I know I've also gained weight since marriage as I cook every night and eat full meals, vs when I was single I would sometimes have peanut butter and crackers and call it good. More fun to cook for two, but there are some drawbacks.

Hope everyone has a better week then it sounds like it was last week.

Oh, no, not that! Vegetables, ahhh! :)

Whole grains help, too, and they are making some "whole grain white" breads that even Rachel finds tolerable. And the Barilla pasta in the yellow box is whole grains and high protein, and Rachel never noticed that I switched. Every little bit...
