At age 55, it is time to really start messing around with my health issues.
Under Drs. orders, he wants me to get my cholesterol down which has skyrocketed again. My plan is to eat more fruit and veggies and post to blogs the things I have done, what is working, what is not working, and how I am feeling. I also have some other goals which will be posted along the way.
Decembert 2013 UPDATE:
My cholesterol is down. My triglycerides are done, and my glucose is very good. Guess going vegan was a great thing for me to do.
