Well, I spent all day Sunday eating really, really bad stuff for me at the MN State Fair. Among the technician, Elana, her significant other, and his folks and their friends, we gouged on things that we didn't know existed.

Then, as I walked into the Health Fair booth to have my cholesterol checked (a non-fasting test quite obviously...), I decided to see if this type A secretor diet was really working for me since the last time I tested it last year as a non-secretor. Sure enough, things were very good for me!

Total: 181

HDL: 99

(Of course as this was a non-fasting, LDL and triglycerides were unavailable.)

Knowing how well things are working for me made it easy not to go back to the fair for a second time on Labor Day.

That is good news.

Well, as I have not blogged lately, I've been quite busy with house stuff, relationship stuff (for what it was worth as I'm pretty sure it's over now), and joining a gym. It really feels good to join a gym! I really missed lifting weights like I used to in college. I'm not so hot on all the cardio, but in small doses it relaxes me at the end of the day. I'm starting up pilates next week and am super-excited about it! This particular health club has a salon which offered a lymphatic drainage massage. I received this and first a facial from an aesthetician who also practices the BTD! Not only that, I found out her MD, Michael Dole, puts all his patients on it and that's how she found out about it in the first place! Crazier yet, his office is in my neighborhood! Is that strange fate or what? I have to meet this guy!

Well, besides not having internet in my house yet (I put this off till the last minute and you know how backed up those companies are when in comes to installation), so I'm doing this in a coffee shop. Nicely, they offer FTO (Fair Trade Organic) coffee. Can't beat that!

Till next time....
