4 months, Cholesterol up 70 pts!
When I started lc back in March, my cholesterol was 180, my good bad is just out of whack, I don't remember the numbers now, not where the should be though. My sugar was high though. I needed to lose weight obviously. In 4 months, I've lost 70 lbs. Go back for bloodwork, glucose is great! Cholesterol is up to 253! What the heck?! Good/bad is still out of whack? One of them is like 31 and needs to be way higher I think she said. My triglycrides were fine, 131 I believe. She said she wasn't concerned about my cholesterol going up, but did ask about what I was eating - she isn't one that is against a LC diet, but did suggest I might back off some of my eggs. I do eat a LOT of eggs. Could this have driven my numbes up that much? And if so what do I do now? Egg beaters and turkey bacon? I'll admit I do eat sometimes 5-6 eggs a day. Just not sure what to do now?
