I'm just wondering if anyone doing low carb on this board has their cholesterol numbers checked? I haven't started a low carb diet yet because I'm a bit worried about my cholesterol going up. I've heard that if you follow some of these lo carb diets correctly your cholesterol numbers should go down. Does anyone have any experience with this? My cholestrol is already high so I am wondering if starting this diet is at all worrisome for me. I guess I'm looking for some longer term low carbers to post on this. Is your cholesterol lower in any way? Thanks Pete
