Yeah... beware of Quaker Oakmeal, it made me visit the bathroom too many times.

I feel for you Lee.

Once I had a high number but I think it may have been a false reading. In anycase, I tried to learn eating what I call cardboard, ie, eggless pasta noddles with powered non-fat sauce flavored water. Once a month I treated myself to a restaurant I loved nearby, being constantly, hauntingly taunted by the aroma, that served freshly ground meat in the best greasy 60ish era style burgers.

The high result did scare me and I actually still read the food labels in the store and have keep up with vitamins. At age 48, my numbers have remained "comfortable" for years now, and I continue to love my fried double-egg-dipped breaded chicken breasts... finger food of the GODS to me.
