And the winner is . . . my HEART!

\”Happy Heart\” by Andy Williams

I promised I’d let you know the results of my JUST SAY NO TO LIPITOR! regime and here it is:

Total cholesterol down 42 points to 216, HDL (good) up from 56 to 62, LDL (“bad”) down from 184 to 142 with a ratio of 3.5.

My doctor is thrilled and flabbergasted and has advised me to “keep up the good work” without any backsliding because he wants the total count down to 180.  PIECE O’ CAKE  . . . or, rather, square of heart-healthy dark chocolate!

I will post specifics on how I did it, but please feel free to drop me a comment or email and it’d be my honor to create a program for you, too!

Suffice to say that I had only 1 piece of pizza since November, no cheese (or Christmas eggnog)whatsoever, drinking water, having oatmeal daily for breakfast with some ultra-healthy additions (more later), no beef, lots of fish, nuts, veggies and fruit.

It was actually fun and look at the reward I get to reap . . . hardly seems any sacrifice at all now.
