Walked 3.1 miles this morning in the cloudy, warm air. Dogs along for 2.4 because it was actually the most comfortable it has been in a few days, courtesy of TS Debby in the vicinity.
I felt a major, MAJOR panic today, as the results of my bloodwork came in. I will not post them, at least not right now, but suffice it to say that half the numbers were outstanding and the other half were dreadful. The clinic called to set up a follow-up appointment next week to "discuss options" (BIG groan...), so perhaps I'll know more then.
This was such a shocker initially, esp. since a major reason for losing the weight was so I could maintain excellent blood chemistry and avoid all the typical ills of poor chemistry, including drugs and repeated doctor visits. I was also completely convinced low-carb is the way to go, so if it doesn't get proven in the bloodwork, where does that leave me?????
Well, by tonight, I'm somewhat calmer and much more encouraged by information I'm finding in the Phinney & Volek books. They write about certain, specific TRANSIENT anomolies in one's bloodwork after one loses 30+ pounds.....that's ME!!!! I'm not sure of all the details in the cited research article that was published awhile back, but I've got the information to take with me to the appointment.
If what I'm seeing (and what the doctor is seeing) are merely the "odd" effects from losing 30+ pounds and those effects do, indeed, resolve themselves naturally after a few months of Maintenance, then I will be one happy camper, because, as I said, half of my "numbers" are outstanding and I'm still convinced low-carb is the way to go.
