I began this diet (new way of eating) last December. My weight was 220 and my triglycerides were 448. I was on 5 medications, 1 cholesterol med, 3 Blood pressure meds and a diuretic. Last week I went back to my doctor and I had lost 55 lbs and he took me off all but two of the meds. My triglycerides are now 88 and my cholesterol (unmeasurable before) is now 109. I have 15 lbs to go before my goal weight. I have no doubt that I will reach my goal. However, I intend to keep eating this way the rest of my life. Which hopefully, will now be longer. Thank you very much for giving me the tools to save my life. Sorry about my spelling!
