It's alarming how what used to work now just... doesn't anymore. Not to mention the fun insomnia, night sweats, and all the other weird shit shifting hormones is doing to me.

I do have to disagree with her on the "oh, high cholesterol? I'll just take meds!" High cholesterol runs in my family, so when I got the inevitable "you have a stick of butter in your veins" result, I went hard at it with diet -oatmeal with blueberries every morning, an apple and a handful of almonds every day for a snack, try to keep things a mix of high protein and high fiber otherwise. Brought those numbers down. But weight? It feels like a losing battle.
