There is nothing quite as good as the first sip of coffee after fasting for blood work for 14 hours! I remembered and was very strict with myself. I was afraid I would forget and get up in the morning and eat without thinking. But I made it. And they found the vein without too much difficulty even though it was shrunken from coffee withdrawal.
Now a week to ponder my cholesterol levels before I really find out.

Linea…!!!
Many similarities happening between us…although I hope you fare better in the cholesterol check than I did. Been on a special eating program for about 6 weeks..6 more to go then back for more blood work. Maybe the cholestrol levels would lower if I stayed away from the plates of “good” food and did more talking…(like that will ever happen 😉
Best of luck in your results!!…should you need any dietary hints I have a whole long list from my Doctor that I am willing to share.
