That's great! I had my cholesterol measured about nine months into low carbing and it had also gone down -- from a total of 214 to a total of 199. I don't remember the exact numbers, but LDL was down and HDL was up and triglycerides were bottomed out (52 I think). I've been thinking about calling the doctor and making an appointment to measure it again (it's been almost a year). Maybe your post will get me to do it!
