Guest guest Posted November 4, 1999 Report Share Posted November 4, 1999 Mollie -- You should tell him that I had my cholesterol checked in November of last year. It was 207 -- the doc said it was " borderline. " Last month I had it checked again, after 2 and a half months on this wol, and it was down to 185. My doc is thrilled.

Then when they do lose, I tell them now stay on it a few more weeks and have their blood checked and just see if their readings arent better!! They are!! Then thats when I say...

Guest guest Posted November 5, 1999 Report Share Posted November 5, 1999 Molly -- I must admit that I know how your hubby feels. I've been thoroughly indoctrinated by the low-fat philosophy (it didn't work, mind you, but I've been thoroughly indoctrinated) that although I can see and feel the results of this woe in my own body, my brain is still having a little trouble catching up. Honestly, that's why I had the recent cholesterol test done. Eating low fat, my cholesterol had been hovering in the borderline area, slowly rising. So, in spite of the fact that there are still doubt in the very cognitive part of my brain, I'm committed to this woe. I know it works. My SO is still looking for empirical data -- some study which shows that this woe truly works. She's crazed by all of the anecdotal information Atkins, the Eadeses, the Hellers, and even Schwarbein use in their books. Alas. Congrats on the moderator thing!
