So I have been debating on weather or not to share this with all of my friends and think I will...it may encourage someone. Those of you that know me personally know I love food and a lot of it...on March 27th i woke up without the use of my right hand. I thought i had a stroke...a whole day of testing determined that it was some nerve damage perhaps from the way i slept. I was 272 lbs that day and decided to be proactive for the first time in my life with regard to my health. I stopped all the bad stuff...no more junk food no more soda etc. So since that day I have eaten for breakfast oatmeal with fruit, for lunch a salad with grilled chicken, little or no dressing and for supper 5 days a week grilled or baked fish with vegetables. the other 2 days beef, pork, or chicken with veggies...no potatoes, no pasta. for treats or dessert fresh pineapple, grapes, or cherries. occasionally string cheese or yogurt...2 k cups of coffee in the morning, water all day and 8 ozs of fresh lemonade with my dinner. it really sucks. had my blood checked a couple of days ago and here are the. results...in march 2013 my cholesterol was 248 should be under 200..the other day 148. my HDL should be over 40 was 38...now 41. my LDL bad cholesterol ahould be under 130...was 180...now 91...my triglycerides (sp) should be under 150...was 170 now 78...i now weigh 227 my BMI went from 38 to 30 went from a 42 waist to a 36...it really is no fun but the results sure are good....feel better thn ever
