I have to admit that this type of article disturbs me. Even though I am happy with the LC WOE and I have been losing weight and inches, sometimes (like now) when I stop to think about how much fat I'm eating I swear I can feel my arteries harden. My heart feels heavy in a very physical (not metaphorical) sense.

I've always had excellent blood pressure and about 1 1/2 years ago I had a full blood work-up done for my life insurance policy. I plan to ask my doctor to check those numbers again in a couple of months so that I can compare. If at that time my cholesterol, B/P & other numbers have taken a turn for the worse I will reconsider this WOL. (I hope that doesn't happen!)
