See a little more light...

So there are good things to be shared - my last doctor's visit resulted in my cholesterol and glucose having gone down 100 points to a healthy range.  Now my prostate PSA level has decreased from 23 to 17 (or from 4+ to 2.8).  THIS is a major positive step and welcomed like you wouldn't believe.  My urologist says I don't have to see him now until January, which is great news.  I intend to continue doing what I've been doing - and I know I'm repeating what I said in my last post, but it's pretty important to have that checklist in detail to keep on the healthier path:

- eliminating carbs save for my two morning slices of multi-grain toast
- no pizza, pasta or cheese
- no red meat or pork
- no sweets
- look at cholesterol levels on food packages; opt for 0% cholesterol and fat-free
- continue taking my daily regimen of vitamin supplements, including (and most importantly) saw palmetto
- continue to drink unsweetened iced green tea
- continue drinking cranberry juice
- more water
- every other day liquid diet; just fruit and ice smoothies (occasion protein or immune-booster added)
- take my medication (for my prostate - after the last refill, no more cholesterol prescription)
- exercise; the gym proves itself to be THE saving grace on all levels
- ample sleep

Working two days a week in a very quiet, sedate office is also a great change, especially after the last few experiences. 

All in all, this last month has been the turning of a corner, where I see new and good things ahead.  And, as always, it has to be one step at a time.
