Rustpot,

I sure appreciate you taking the time to answer my cholesterol question.

My previous test was about five months before I started LCing (the 202 one). That was the only number I was given (or remember being given) so I don't know HDL level. Wish I did.

I am really committed to my new WOE and will have to get myself into research mode and do more searching. Meanwhile, I have no intention of going back to my old eating habits in which I LIVED on carbohydrates. No matter what my cholesterol numbers were then, I know in my heart I am eating healthier now.

Again, thank you so much for the information!

Kathy
