My totals went up (am menopausal, so that's fairly natural)...but HDL and LDL improved, so my risk ratio went waayyyy down...off the charts safetywise. When I asked my doc if I could go on eating eggs, cream, cheese, pork etc. he said: "Absolutely yes!!"

All of my figures have drastically dropped. Except for my urate level which has stayed the same.

My Dr., although he is pro Atkins, said that my #'s would never drop the 100 points that it needs to, staying on Atkins. He would be happy at 50 points, but feels that I still will need to medicate. I told him I want to give it at least 2-3 months and then get retested. These numbers reflect two days after I started Atkins (3-19-07). Total chol = 305 HDL = 56 LDL = 190 Tri = 294 |

Definately give it more time - you should recheck in 6 mos, right? I'd measure it out then...

I just had mine checked the other day after 4 months on Atkins. I posted the results in another forum (wasn't aware of this one). Here's the post: http://www.atkinsdietbulletinboard.c...ad.php?t=43329 (Cholesterol results) Mike |
