Buzz Update 2/11/2008

I received good news from Dr. Joo today. The results of a recent blood screening came back showing a Glucose reading back within the normal range, which means that the thought of needing treatment for diabetes is gone. My bad cholesterol levels went down 7 points to 79; my total cholesterol went down 11 points to 147; but my good cholesterol didn't go up - it stayed at 29 which is too low. On the Prostate cancer issue, which all of us need to be tested for, my PSA score even went down to 2.35.
Over the last year my weight went down around 15 pounds which the Dr. said accounts for the better levels. When I told him I was regularly excercising on the tread mill he was really impressed...and told me to keep it up and the blood profiles would likely continue to get into better ranges.
Now, with less than 3 weeks until Men's Health night, the pressure is on to keep on the plan, so that I can make a decent showing compared to the much younger 'fellas' in the Challenge!
