So that's what goes on in her head

I'm mostly convinced that mine is genetic, due to an extensive family history of high cholesterol and heart disease, on both mom & dad's sides. But the stress connection is interesting too -- about a year ago, I was in the best shape I've ever been, eating right, going to yoga class 4-5 times a week. I was probably about as calm as ever then too. I really wish I'd had the test then to compare. I guess I'll just have to wait until after the first of the year, when I'm taking a break from school and can get back into a healthier, less frantic lifestyle -- then I'll go back and get the fasting test and see if it's made an impact.
