Hi everyone

I have posted this in my journal, but just wanted to share it here as well.
I stated LC 13 weeks ago, when I started my doctor tested my blood pressure and ordered cholesterol blood tests.
The results were not good !!!!!!!
blood pressure was 140/110
cholesterol was 8.1 (anything over 5 is not good)

Went back to the doctor today (13 weeks later)
My blood pressure is now PERFECT 120/80
and my cholesterol is now 6.4, which is still a little bit high, but definately on the way down.

I am just so thrilled with these results, I know I still have a long way to go with my weight, but I know if I stick to this plan it's really going to happen. I have lost almost 20 kilos in 13 weeks, which to me is just amazing.

Hope everyone is having a great LC day !!!!!
bye for now

Wow...that is GREAT! Isn't it fantastic to reap rewards like that! Congrats - give yourself a big pat on the back for me - BP can be very dangerous when it gets high and doubly so when you add high cholesterol, so you're doing awesome!

Way to go s.a.kaye!

WAY TO GO SA!! That is so fantastic! Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!

What were you doing to get your numbers down?

Congratulations!!! That is so wonderful. I just went to my DR (Started the diet 2 days ago). My BP was 143/96. It scares me. I have anxiety at night over it. I am trying to be positive and I am very excited to start!
You are an inspiration!!
CONGRATS!!!!!!!!!!!
