just came from doc - gotta loose 20lbs - cut the fat

[imgoingtodisney]

Just came from docs. She did an EKG, said it was fine.
Sending me for bloodwork - Basic Metabolic Panel, CBC, C-reactive protein ultra and Lipid Panel.
Gave me papers on cutting the cholesterol but I think I left them at the receptionist's desk.
Wants me to loose 20lbs - get down to at least 130. Cutting the fat is more important than cutting the sodium. No less than 1200 calories/day.
She wants me to have a nuclear stress test done - better for women.

Hope all those tests come back OK! Best wishes!

I know getting all those tests done can be a strain, but good information to have in the end!

Good Luck on your results!
