Default Bloodwork results --

Hi all --

Before we got on our flax muffin kick we were talking about bloodwork results -- DebA reported how much better her cholesterol and triglycerides were in her last bloods, and I congratulated her, suggesting that my first bloods since going low carb had just been taken, and I promised to tell you all how it had gone --

Cholesterol -- 220, Triglycerides, 270

Now before you say anything -- the cholesterol is about the same as my last bloods, taken back in March. But my triglycerides are about HALF was they were in March! And this is the biggie: I was taking meds for my triglycerides then, and I'm not now!

So with triglyceride meds and on a low fat diet I was running about 600 -- without the meds and on a low carb diet I am half that. You tell me!
