A good reason to stay the course - lower cholesterol!!!


Recommended Posts

I just had blood work done for a volunteer job I'm taking this summer. Lo and behold my cholesterol went down for the first time in years! My "good" stuff is really good and my "bad" stuff is in normal range. AND my triglicerides (sp???) are way down. Huzzah! 

 

As I said, if I needed reason other than feeling great and loving the good food, this really made me happy. 

 

Cheers all.

that is great to hear!  I always had high cholesterol( highest being 242) about 3 years ago; but all my other numbers were good except my LDL was slightly high. I always refused to go on meds. and Dr. seemed pretty ok with that.  It's been 2 years since I had any blood work done. I have completed my whole 30 in the fall, but continue to follow it because I like the way I feel ( I do on occasion make a choice to have a small amount of "crap" and suffer later for it).   So as soon as we get out Health Insurance back I am excited to see what my readings are.   I hope to be doing the "happy dance."

 

Thanks for the post, Sparklefiftyseven :)
