As I recall you'd opened the beer for yourself, and the cat helped himself (that's what makes it cool, if really annoying).

My cat, Marcaroni, doesn't like beer, but she always tried for a sip of my red wine!

Your ratio is excellent...I would think it couldn't get much better right? I have HIGH cholesterol too. Some doctors freak out and some just say...wow, your ratio is amazingly good.
One year ago I had my cholesterol tested and it was:
272 Total
LDL 175
HDL 80
Ratio = 3.4
Then I had it tested again 6 months ago and it was:
251 Total
LDL 151
HDL 85
Ratio = 2.9
The second doctor had a follow-up call with me to see what we could do about lowering my cholesterol. I'm like, dude...look at my HDL...look at my ratios. He left me alone at that point. Lipitor pusher.
Am I wrong? It looks like your profile improved right?
Quote:
The ratio of HDL to LDL and total cholesterol is considered more important than total cholesterol in predicting the risk of heart attack, heart disease, stroke and other health problems. This ratio indicates whether there is extra cholesterol stored in the cells and whether your body is properly eliminating excess cholesterol from your body. Total cholesterol level guidelines are:- acceptable: total cholesterol ratio less than 4.0;
- very good: total cholesterol ratio 3.5;
- excellent: total cholesterol ratio 3.0;
- amazing: total cholesterol ratio 2.6
If you achieve a total cholesterol ratio of 2.4 - 2.8 your body may begin to reverse existing heart disease symptoms. Given the opportunity, the human body has an amazing capacity to heal itself.
Most people are too focused on bad cholesterol levels and total cholesterol levels, and are not aware of the importance of their total cholesterol ratio. As evidenced above, the total cholesterol ratio may be the most important factor on the cholesterol level scale and should be monitored for improvement.

That's great! Thanks. I'm feeling better about it, now.
Jill, do you have a link for that, in case I want to refer my doctor over to the place where you found that info?
Fasting glucose numbers in this morning. 89. Standard range is 70-99 mg/dl.

Hey, you know what's good? It's not a frou-frou chick drink, but it was inspired by your coconut rum and vanilla coke zero recipe...
Coke Zero
DaVinci Sugarfree Vanilla Syrup
A L'il Half and Half or cream
Lotsa ice
Mmmmmm....

I'm not a chick, so I don't have that syrup.

I normally go for beer or wine, rarely mixed drinks... But I've heard of a black velvet which I understand is a combination of champagne and stout which I'd like to try.

Yesterday, I totally wiped out on the upper body stuff. I'd planned my normal full body, but after the DB Clean and Jerks, the thought of doing a chinup was unpleasant... So, I continued on with more lower stuff and pushed upper work to today. Today went well.
A1: Weighted Pushups, 3x8, +35lbs
A2: Weighted Chinups, 3x8, 190 +15lbs
B1: Chest Supported Rows, 3x8, 90 (3rd set, also had drop sets)
B2: DB Squeeze Press (End 2 End), 3x12, 50lbs (3rd set, also had drop sets)
C1: BB Wall Curls, 3x8, 60 (plus drop set)
C2: Decline Skullcrushers, 3x10, 75 (plus drop set)
D1: Pec Stretches/Towel Stretches
D2: DB Rear Delt Raises, 3x12, 20lbs
Excellent workout.
