In the last 20 years I have dedicated myself to healthier eating habits probably about 25 times. not to lose weight - I am blessed with genetically high metabolism so it's never been a weight issue.

Health report
I'll start with the bad and end on a cheerier note :-)The Bad - I feel so old! So many general aches. The right elbow from what was most likely poor placement of the mouse at my desk at work. That aching elbow makes it hard to use my right arm to lift anything on... Continue Reading →
Quickie results post
I almost thought I would have to wait until Tuesday. When no call had come at 3:20, I called Dr Lim's office since I knew the results were supposed to be faxed over there. The gal who answers the phone tells me that the doctor and nurse are gone for the weekend and wont be... Continue Reading →

Yes, I can remember back that far! ;-)So this needle biopsy is done with the patient laying on their stomach on a not terribly comfortable... Continue Reading →

Allergies
So Sunday night I am jolted awake by a sinus headache. Grumble. No reason for this. Not any hormonal time of the month, I've been avoiding milk - I don't get it! I can tell right away it is going to be one that will hang on too - no pain meds will really help.... Continue Reading →
