On May 11th, my LDL was 177 ( a huge jump since it was done previously). My doctor called to ask me what the heck was going on. I did not want to take medication, so I told him to let me work on getting it down with lifestyle change. I had it rechecked and with my diet changes, exercise and weight loss, it is down to 106!! Yay me!!:happy:

    It just goes to show what hard work and watching diet can do. I'm surprised your doctor didn't ask you to counsel the rest of his patients. :happy: You have succeeded where others have failed. Give yourself a gold star and post those results on the refrigerator!
