Upon research (let’s be honest here…my main friend The Dish), I have determined that a good way to reduce cholesterol is to eat oatmeal.
So it’s Day 3 on eating oatmeal in the morning. So far, so good. I can’t say it’s amazing, but it’s not bad either. I think I shall try the apple flavour kind next.
My main issue with the oatmeal is the fact that I have to slot in some extra time to eat it in the morning. If you don’t know the Palmer’s morning habits, it consists of waking up at 6:10, showering, getting dressed, eating breakfast and making lunch…all in time to get out the door by 6:45. I like to consider myself a machine. There is no room for error in my morning lifestyle.
So now I have to wake up at 6:00 to accommodate the prep/eating of the oatmeal. Am I whining about this? Well, 10 minutes a day is a little thing to bicker about when I’m talking about my health. So I suppose I don’t mind TOO much. I’ve come to discover the A-Channel Morning Show which is quite enjoyable for 10 minutes.
I also figure I should prepare myself for the eventual introduction of children in my home (warning: not for a long time!) and the fact that no matter how much I love to have a morning process, it just won’t happen somedays so I better get used to it. 😉
