I just got the results back from the blood test I had at my over-due check-up. Everything checked out pretty d@mn good, considering the condition I 'should' be in, except it seems my chlorestoral has nudged up a bit. Not Bad, but needs to come down. Short on Vit D too (Duh, like it's Winterrrr. Everyone is short on D !)

Doc sez I gotta:

~ Cut out beef and eat more lean meat.
~ Add fish to my diet at least 3X a week.
~ More whole grains and Omega 3 rich nuts & legumes.
~ Exercise more & get out into the sun more.

So, lets' see. Lean meat....like uhh Venison, or maybe free ranging pork ? Fish...like salmon, trout, perch, walleye ? Grains & nuts....sounds like trail mix to me. Exercise & sun....That has to be a good walk outside some where.

Add it up and it sure as hell sounds like Doc Potter just told me I had (Had) to start hunting, fishing and golfing a lot more, for health reasons. Apparently I just haven't been doing enough to stay healthy.

Sorry Babe, Doc said so. I got it in writing right here, see ? :D

( Does this mean I can write off a new Kimber 300WSM as a medical expense ? )

I feel your pain. Same thing happens to me over winter and the doc freaks out. Knowing what I do now, I take Vit D and fish oil especially during winter. Will find out in two weeks where I stand.
