When does this happen? I've been doing this 8.5 months and still see purple (when I bother to check anymore).
Anyway, my cholesterol has dropped all my chemistries have improved (my blood calcium levels are high now than the very low levels they were when I was eating high carb. If I don't eat this way - I just eat junk period. I don't see an alternative. I think I will live a bit longer eating this way than the way I used to.....duh. |
