On Febuary 9th, I dragged my DH, kicking & screaming into LDL with me. He grudgingly said he would give it a 30 day "trial period". He has tried many times to lose weight, but has not had much success, because of his diabetes, among other health issues. He last saw his doctor in December 2008. Today, he went for his yearly physical; these are the results:
A1C is down from 7.6 to 7.2
Triglycerides down from 204 to 180 (still high, I know, but coming down!!)
Total cholesterol was down to 90, so doctor said to take his statin every other day, instead of daily.
HDL - 25 - too low, but working on that.
LDL - 29 - normal
Plus, he has lost 11 pounds, which is excellent, since he has so much trouble losing weight.
His doctor was very pleased, and we told him about the program. Now you could not pay my DH to stop doing LDL!!!
A good day at the doctor!

A good day at the doctor!
So often times it happens that we live our lives in chains, and we never even know we have the key.
