You made me laugh! I'm feeling hopeful this morning. The issue is just to crop the cholesterol, the blood pressure, keep the kidney function where it is and not let it get worse, and to drop the weight. I already feel hopeful.

This morning, at the doctor, my blood pressure was down from 130 to 120 (my norm has been 110 throughout my life). My cholesterol is down a little bit), and my jeans are now dropping off me. Very irritating. :)

I have a lot more energy, so all good.

And, yes, I know exactly what you mean by change. I used to take a lot of things in my stride. Can't do that anymore. I think it's time to settle...
