Talking Hello - An introduction

Hello Everyone,

This is my first attempt at any forum and I am entering this forum as a Johnny come lately. I actually started my new way of eating on June 4, 2003. It was a few days after I looked over my doctors should and read my description on his chart. It read, " 47 year old obese male".

As I am sure you all already know, I encountered alot of naysayers along the way. I was told the stories of those people on the diet that had died of a heart attack. My cholesteral has gone from 228 to 180and my triglycerides half halved to 88 from 166.

Brenda, my wife, has been a tremendous help. She has read all of the books and informed me of their content. I am lazy you see. She started with me even though I didn't ask her. Her progress has been slower and she gets discourage sometimes. But, she keeps on.

I really don't know what else to write at this time. I hope I didn't come off as a brag. I wanted to give you some background.

Sincerely,
Mitch
