Had my Well Woman today... ugh

 Ok so maybe it's not the worst thing ever, but ladies, I think we all know that the "scootch to the edge of the table and put your feet in the stirrups" just sucks, right?

By my scale I was up 4lbs 😡  But the doctor said I was actually down from my last weigh in a half a pound so I guess it's good I lost from 6 months ago, but I've gained back some. 

Had my lab work done yesterday, everything was good, or has vastly improved from 6 months ago.  My cholesterol and LDL is still just a little high but my cholesterol dropped over 50points and my LDL went down 60 so that's a great thing.   I still need to work on getting those numbers down another 15-20points to be in the healthy range, but it's a great start so I'm happy.  So is my doctor cause I did it without meds!

So I gave myself a "come to Jesus meeting" this morning.  I've been slacking and snacking WAY to much.  And sitting and reading which while is a great hobby to have, it doesn't burn a lot of calories LOL.   But reading also makes me happy, so I just need to balance being more active with my reading time.  And my gaming time cause I'm also a gamer.  I mean if given a chance, I'd happily sit and read half the day, and game the other half and only move enough to prevent bed sores by going to the bathroom and getting snacks and something to drink.  In fact, when I am in a big gaming splurge, I tend to lose a couple pounds cause it's hard to snack when you have both hands on a controller or you're using your hands on the mouse and WSDA keys moving your character.  I have gone all day without eating anything during LONG gaming sessions. 

But that's really not healthy.  Fun AF, but not healthy LOL.  To bad I can't get the calorie burn my Dragonborn gets while running up some mountain in Skyrim cause I'd need to eat 5000 calories a day to maintain during long gaming sessions😂

So today, I put my Cathe Live subscription to use.  Something I hadn't done in about 3 weeks, so it was time to get my money's worth out of it.

I did this.


And Mac here was my gym supervisor, soaking up the sunshine


He was a pretty lousy supervisor, but he's cute so it's ok

Tomorrow I'm planning on hitting the spin bike cause it's also been about 3 weeks since I did a spin workout.  Been doing more walking on the tread but I do miss my spin classes, so it's time to get back on the bike.

And maybe on Thur I'll do another Cathe.  I've got some of her leg workouts that it's been a while since I've done.  Probably time to do some of them.
