Hi everyone, I'm new here, but have been following the CAD /CALP diet for a year. I lost 30 pounds in 5 months and then hit a plateau. I have stayed at about the same weight (give a pound or two) since then. My cholesterol dropped 16 points when I first lost the weight, but now has gone up 50 points and I'm still eating the CAD way.
I'm not sure what to do now.....If I start eating what the Dr's say is a healthy diet, I know that I will gain weight, if I stay with the high protein, low carb diet at least I will keep the weight off, have high cholesterol and risk a stroke.
Any one else have this situation??????? Any suggestions for me?????
Thanks to anyone that answers my post.
