Saw The Killers last night, Woo Hoo

I'll admit that my MAWG kinda made me go...but, it was pretty cool. I highly recommend seeing The Killers in concert...take ear protection though :) they're very LOUD!

Here's some video of "Smile Like You Mean It"...My life song.


I couldn't afford a T-Shirt too, but if I could've bought one...it would have been the one that looked like this:


These guys were the band before The Killers took stage:

These guys were awesome too. Preview some of their songs on Amazon

My cholesterol is going down...Naturally!!!

OK...here are the results of my last 3 months of eating right and getting regular exercise:

Initial Test Results

Current Results

!! Y E S !!

Now, I need to figure out how to raise that HDL -- Very tricky this good/bad cholesterol thing.

My 2nd cholesterol check is today...

It's been about 3 months since the 1st check and finding out it was high. My Dr. gave me the time to see if I could lower it on my own without drugs.

Hopefully I have :)

If this is your first time here, read below for some of my meal plans that have been helpful to me for obtaining my cholesterol and weight lowering goals.
