Well, it's official...

I got the bad cholesterol gene in the family. I've been a vegetarian for 10 years, and my cholesterol was tested this morning. It's 220!!! Everyone else who's divulged their numbers were well below 200. Yikes. Guess I need to mention this to the doc next time I go in and get the "real" test (this was just a blood droplet test).

It's weird -- I think I already "knew" this somehow, especially when my mom's cholesterol was so much higher than my dad's earlier this year.

Off to find an uber-healthy lunch now!
