Hi! Thanks for responding...
I do take flax seed oil, but I'm a bit sporadic..
My LDL's were lower, before he put me on HBP meds.(and iron). But, to be fair, I did gain back some weight. I'm sure that doesn't help.. But we're talking 9-10 lbs..
Let me go to My Plan and get those previous results, before HBP..
Date Temp BG BP Cholest LDL HDL Tri
2006-Jun-29..........212..139....60....65
I haven't really changed my diet and my LDL has jumped 11 points. My HDL has jumped too. I was trying to eat more fat, but maybe I'm one of those fat sensitive people Dr. Atkins spoke of...
And I have been active. My horse hurt her tendon,(July 31) so I stall her at night. That translates into stall mucking. I also dump out her water (a big 10 gallon thing) and refill it. I disperse the poo in my yard. I brush her and pick her feet. It takes about an hour. But, honestly, for me it's not really very aerobic.
I managed to walk for about 10 minutes before the cat found me and was meowing and begging to go in the house..
Yes, I should ride horse, but can't because of pulled tendon!! Hers, not mine.. I do have another little horse I'm considering for my daughter, but she's rather thin right now and I feel as if I should carry her...
