@Flame , I have to go get labs done tomorrow, since it's been a year, fasting labs at 9:45 a.m. last time, all of my tests came back good except for triglycerides. I looked up triglycerides, and I think it's either a carbohydrate or comes from carbohydrates in food. I'm hoping that it's lower this time, but I think I weigh about the same as before. I gave up on exercising, because I think it's what I'm eating. I eat a lot of carbohydrates (had spaghetti last night and will have it again tonight). exercising made me lose 0 lbs over a 3 month period, so I gave up for that reason.
