I had a pre-physical before Christmas and just had a physical today.
Doc looks at blood work then and now and says, "you should go do
whatever you were doing over the holidays, your blood sugar and
cholesterol look better now". I told him I'd been sailing so he asked
how that could affect my blood. Basically, I eat very little when
sailing cuz I simply forget to do so.
So, should I take this as doctors orders to continue my cruise?

Sounds like a brilliant man whose advice requires strict adherence.
