Oops!

I know I have not updated this thing in forever. Thats because I quit losing weight! It was too much to worry about while trying to finish school. I swore that 2 weeks after I was done I would start Weight Watchers again. It now been 7 weeks and I have done nothing. I went to the Doctor the other day because things are all messed up in the woman department(I will leave it at that). She ordered quite a few different labs to be drawn and called me with the results. She told me that my cholesterol levels were through the roof and that it needed to be taken care of ASAP! I dont know the exact numbers, well I cant remember them, but I know that they WAY to HIGH! I already knew they were high but I didnt tell her that. I was on meds but because of some issues I never got more when I ran out. Anyway she also told me that my Blood Glucose levels were extremely high as well. I've assumed for awhile that I was pre-diabetic but maybe its turned into actual diabetes??? I dont know! So I will go have a Hemoglobin A1C. This will show my blood sugars over the last 3 months. I also have to go have a glucose tolerance test done as well. That is the one that pregnant ladies do. I feel like I am too young to be worrying about all of this. I know I am overweight and I dont eat healthy but how many people my age really do? So I guess I will start Weight Watchers again and really try to limit my sugar intake. I think I will quit drinking soda as well. I switched to Diet but apparently thats not enough! It will be hard, I need it working graveyards! But I guess I need to start thinking about my future more and where I want to be and that is not lying in a coffin or a hospital bed because I've had a stroke or a heart attack!
