I never fainted!

This morning with only 5 hours sleep because I wasn't tired and could not fall to sleep until early hours. With just 5 minutes until my appointment I rushed out the door and got there in time, I had already missed 2 appointments previously and these tests were supposed to have been done in Feb! I actually wasn't nervous this time and just got it done with no problem, in fact probably was the least problematic of all of them, maybe I'm really just getting used to it now, and I didn't faint which is great! Fainted in 2004 and not nice :)

I will check on Friday to see if the results are back, I suspect I wont know them now until next Wednesday, but when I get them I'll be sure to update my personal CR website where you can find all my previous lab results.


On another topic, I have decided that Sundays is now a fasting day. I feel quite good when I fast and doing it just one day a week will nudge calories down a tiny bit and maybe provide some benefit. I'll let you know how that goes... but I did do a 2 day fast just over 1 week ago and had no problem with it.
