My results are in
When I started LCing back at the beginning of June, I didn't need to loose any weight but my cholesterol levels had been quite a concern for my doctor and me for about 5 years (menopause can do that to you). Anyway, I started with the LC thing just to get my feet wet, didn't do the induction phase as weight was not my concern, cholesterol was.
I gave myself 4 months (a good amount of time for levels to even themselves out) and had my blood work done this past week. Low and behold, even my doctor is asking me what I've been doing to get such great results. My triglycerides have plummeted, my HDL has soared and my LDL has bottomed out, I couldn't be happier. When I told my doctor what I'd been up to, eating lots of meat, fats, cheeses, eggs and very little fruits, veg and whole grains that I'd been prescribed for the past half decade, she was quite startled.
I can actually live my life eating the foods I've been denied all these years and now not worry about feeling hungry or clogging my arteries.
Life is sweet!
