Atkins Diet ?

[willp58]

Here's a follow-up on my previous post here:

I'm 64, had an MI in 1991..About 8 months ago I went on the Atkins regimen. Because of my history, I was leery of the Cholesteral levels that Atkins might bring.

I had a lipid profile done last week and here are the results.

total cholesteral......148
HDL....................53
LDLD..................78.7
Triglycerides.........89

HDL ratio.............2.8

Needless to say, I am happy with these numbers..they are the best ones so far in 13 years.

Since losing the weight that I wanted to, I've migrated to a more Southbeach regimen..Less fat, more veggies and fruit, BUT very little white bread, pasta, do-nuts etc.
