Michael and I went to the free health screening at Sam's Club this morning. Mike's cholesterol (which was dangerously high a couple years ago) is now within normal range, so I can stop constantly freaking out about that. :)
My glucose levels, blood pressure, and cholesterol all looked really good. My BMI? Not so awesome. A whopping 38%. Wow....what an eye opener. I'm so glad I'm working on it. I used to be 46 pounds heavier than I am now. I don't even want to know how much more it would have been back then (2008-2009ish).
I have had to really fight an inner battle this weekend because tomorrow's Mike's graduation and some of his family is coming into town. My first thought is (as usual), What fun food are we going to have? I'm having some good stuff (hummus and veggies and pita chips, cheese and crackers, and middle eastern chopped salad) that is pretty healthy and really delicious. I haven't bought a cake. I want to sooo much. Part of me feels like I'm doing something wrong by not getting one. It's ridiculous, I know. But he doesn't want one, we don't need the added temptation, and I don't want it. It's a weird feeling, but it's good.
