and it’s not pretty.

I received my blood work back, my yearly blood work and the findings were not surprising:

1. I have a Insufficient amount of Vitamin D in moi.  No wonder I get “Severe Contusions” to my knees doing jumping jacks.
2. My B-12 is low.
3. Calcium low.
4. Super Low Iron (causes hair to fall out my doctor reminded me).
5. New item on the list….Hypoglycemia.

In all I’m a mess.  I can say that my Cholesterol is amazing though.  No risk of clogged arteries just a shrunken heart from lack of iron.  My protein levels though low are in range so as long as I continue lots of protein I’m good.

I’m hoping my report next year will be much better!  I start the Weight Loss Challenge tomorrow and tomorrow I start the new me Vitamin program too.  I have to remember I AM NOT SPECIAL and that I do need supplements and without them, my body is a mess.
