Cholesterol level

I got the quantitative results of last Friday's cholesterol blood test
today.
The level was 4.5 mmol/ml compared to 4.9 mmol/ml at the beginning of
September and 5.3 mmol/ml in February. The only change to my diet I've made
in that time is to replace butter by 'Benecol Buttery Taste spread', and
perhaps a little more fruit. So it looks like the Benecol really has
w*rked. Bilirubin was at 30 which is right at the top edge of normal - so
I'm still alive and kicking - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - just. :)

Rabbit...

Kicking what or who ??? :-)

You'd better keep a watch out, old girl. :)

Rabbit...

S'OK I can tell the time with my pooter clock :-)

Rabbit...

Less of the old and more of the girl ;-)

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

I'm all for that. Send her round if she's been on page 3. :)

Rabbit...

You know how you see dogs chasing cars ? You know they wouldn't know what to
do with one if they caught it ? You can see where I'm heading :-)

But it's the thrill of the chase that counts

Or so I've been told. :(

Jackie...

Glad your cholesterol is lower FN, are you diabetic as you are having
these tests?

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

I was borderline on that in February Jackie, so I'll need another glucose

Jackie...

Oh! I see, I think Ted had had diabetes for some time and did not know
it. So better safe than sorry.

That's the way they w*rk now isn't? Don't they get bonus points or Brownie
points for doing all these checks on pensioners these days?

test next February.

Just completed my Saturday afternoon balanced meal.

1st course: One ginormous fry up - 2 eggs, 2 rashers of bacon, ½ slice fried
*brown wholemeal* bread, 1 *tomato* , 1 sliced fried *new potato*, 4
mushrooms and 4 sausages. Washed down with an ample glass of *low* alcohol
white wine. ,

2nd course: ¼ lb *fresh strawberries* , 1 large *Jaffa orange* , 1 large
*Cox's orange pippin* . Washed down with a mug of hot AltaRica coffee ( 2
sugars and a dash if *skimmed milk* )

1 packet of Maltezers to follow in about ½ hour's time. :)

Do you think that'll cover my 5 servings of fruit and veg for the day? Or
shall I have that ¼ lb of ice cool seedless grapes from the fridge at tea

Aries...

How on earth did you manage to stuff all that into you - my goodness :-?

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

It's a weekly habit Val. You get used to it. :)

:-? :-? :-?

Ali...

Possibly - the potatoes don't count, but the mushrooms do (although a
portion is given as *14* button mushrooms)

Flyiñg Ñuñ 2°°6 +...

Well with the size of the *4* I had it's almost there. :)

Jackie...
