My doctor called this afternoon and my cholesterol has dropped 71 points since I started MFP back in March. 71 points!!!

I went from 297 to 226 in total cholesterol. I know I still have a loooong way to go but I couldn't be happier.

This site and all your support has helped make me a much happier and healthier person!

    If it isn't too personal I was wondering:

    Did you do it with the help of any medication?

    Did you eat oatmeal every day?

    What do you think were the main factors in succeeding in lowering your cholesterol?

    I don't have high cholesterol but some of my family does and I would like your opinion.

    Nice job!! :wink:

    No medication I'm glad to report. I have been taking Omega 3 supplements once a day though. Unfortunately they have 10 calories each :grumble:

    No Oatmeal. Just healthier eating and exercise. I can't believe the difference it's made!
