Major Changes

So far, I have decided that I need to be a hell of a lot more serious about my health. If I don't do anything else for the new year, I need to do at least that. My doctor told me that my cholesterol level is slightly high. Because I know absolutely nothing about those damn numbers, I decided to get on the internet and do my homework. In a nutshell, my LDL and HDL is bad, and that ain't good. I've gotten slightly paranoid about the whole thing such that I read the labels of everything I buy in the grocery store just to make sure what I am buying doesn't have any cholesterol or saturated fat. My doctor mailed a diet plan she wants me to start, but I haven't gotten it in the mail yet. I will have to call her tomorrow and just go pick it up. I have been eating Honey Nut Cheerios like crazy. I have to get on a strict diet for at least three months before I do another blood test. I got the news about my health right before Thanksgiving. I knew it would be a little difficult to maintain a strict diet around the holidays, so I decided to wait until the new year. I hope my cholesterol level hasn't gotten any higher in the meantime.
