Wayne_Kent_Seago Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Last year at this time, I got a check up and found my LDL (the bad cholesterol that can lead to heart disease and stroke) was 156 (the range they call "borderline high" is 130 - 159) and my doctor said if we can't get it down I would need medication. Then I found this site and got to work. I got my blood work redone last week, went to the doctor yesterday and found I had dropped my LDL cholesterol to 140! It is still higher than I would like, but my doctor was thrilled that it dropped and also thrilled about my weight loss since my last visit (almost 30 pounds) Still work to do, but I am on the wright track!

Super Destroyer Posted October 26, 2013 Report Share Posted October 26, 2013 Awesome, way to go! Hoping to get same results when I go back for a physical in Dec. Mine was a little over 140 at the end of the summer. Good was 39, so little low. I have lost 40 lbs since then, hope to lose another 15 and blow the doc's mind! He wanted to put me on meds, too. What kind of diet have you been on? I have been low carb and about to start paleo. Quote "It is cutting time......"

Wayne_Kent_Seago Posted October 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2013 Thanks. In terms of diet, I cut out a lot of fried foods, bad fats and processed crap (those noodle side dishes in boxes and bags). I have some work to do in those areas though. I still use butter, but not as much as I did. I still love carbs way too much, but trying to balance them with protein.
