Check up went well

About 1 1/2 years ago the doctor wrote out a prescription for cholestoerol medication and told me I was at risk for heart disease.
I filled the prescription and it still sits in my cabinet on the shelf as a reminder; however, I never took a single pill.
I changed my eating habits, lost weight an exercised. Today I had my checkup and all of my numbers are well below the goal numbers. I feel vindicated now for the denial and pain and suffering I have subjected myself to through diet and exercise. I am so happy that I chose to change my lifestyle and have stuck to it and seen the results naturally, without resorting to pharmecuticals.
I hope this encourages someone who is where I was.
