"Long cardio" day. I took a great spinning class this morning, then went upstairs and rode the stationary cycle to nowhere for 40 more minutes.<br><br>
All of this cross-training stuff feels harder than running right now. There's that specificity principle in action.

Thank you, Grizzly. Wallowing and being depressed isn't going to change anything, so I'm trying to stay active and positive for the time being, and hold on to as much fitness as I can.

Flounder, your HDL # is most important and yours ROCKS. But yeah you are right on the line for total cholesterol count.<br><br>
Do you ... exercise? (duh) take fish oil supplements? otherwise consume healthy fats regularly? drink red wine? consume an antioxidant rich diet?
