Will your insurance pay for lab work you order yourself? It's good if they will, if you can be ahead of things. I usually manage to have a mammogram before my annual exam, but that's it (reminds me, I need to make an appointment). Need the bone density done again also.

Newsletter out the wazzoo today. It's looking good as it comes together, as long as I use the paragraph styles efficiently. I've watched and rewatched the Lynda.com "Up and Running with InDesign" so much they may be ready to send me a DVD to spare their streaming bandwidth! :)

I'm shifting my eating to more servings of produce at each meal, eating very little bread or other carbs. This gradual progression of changes makes the prospect of healthy eating easier because I'm not suddenly having to stop various things that I've always done. Only now am I actually beginning to look at calories as something that might be counted, but more importantly, simply eating more of the healthy stuff so I'm not feeling hungry and looking around for the non-healthy stuff. I did find some nice small peanut butter whole and grain fiber snack bars that I think will be my go-to treat when I need one. They're sold at Aldi.
