I am in love with grapefruit right now

The thing I hate most about these stupid cholesterol pills is it means I can't have grapefruit. I love grapefruit too. When I was a kid my grandparents would send us a crate of oranges and grapefruit from Florida every winter and I was the only one who loved the grapefruit so they were pretty much all mine (my mom would eat half a grapefruit for breakfast sometimes).

I have to figure a way to quit taking these stupid pills.

I've posted a couple good links to my blog about how useless statins are -- the most recent one, I think you'd enjoy.

Yes, I read that with great interest and it's yet another reason why I want to quit taking statins. But my doctors seem adamant they're necessary for diabetics. Gah.

Lordy, if I could only drop 30 pounds I'd be in good shape to ditch the statins too.

I got all fascinated and then whoops no 13g carbs per half. Not the worst by far, but... eh. I've gotten pretty manically low carb of late. Bacon for lunch!

Yeah, I haven't gone quite that far -- I'm just staying under 100 grams for now. My newest experiments are going to be in the realm of acid/alkaline eating I think, which means more veggies and less grapefruit. :P

You don't have to refrigerate them.

I suppose if I keep eating them at the rate I am, I wouldn't have to...but things go moldy pretty fast in SoCal. :)
