I had my annual physical today. Just in case you were wondering if all the hard work is worth it, below are some of my results.

Nov 09 Oct 10
Weight 174 125
Cholesterol197 162
HDL 77 62
LDL 107 91
Triglyceride 63 44

My overall cholesterol went down, my cholesterols are much improved, my liver functions and blood pressure are perfect, my weight is good, and my bodyfat is in the athlete range. (BTW - I'm 5 foot 4 in and 48 YO.)

My doctor was doing cartwheels! She just had a baby and wanted to know how I lost the weight, so naturally I showed her this site. She thought it was great and will be recommending it to other patients who are fighting the bulge.

So there ya go. It IS worth all the effort. It took nearly a year, but patience pays off in the end. Stay with it. Good luck!

    That's awesome, I am so waiting for the day when I go to the GYN, Family Physician and the most important my Cardiologist -"Dr. B" I go in February to the GYN, June to the cardiologist and Family Physcian in July unless I get sick in between. I know you were excited I would be. Congratulations on a job well done!! Gives the rest of us lots of inspiration.
