Benefits from staying on course while on vacation still continue. I need to concentrate more on getting calcium since muscle cramping has begun to present a problem again (especially in the middle of the night). I usually take a calcium supplement everyday but was lax about it while on vacation.
Got some bloodwork back recently:
Since beginning Atkins on Feb. 7 2010:
Total Cholesterol: Down 24 points (179 to 155)
Triglycerides: Down 99 (244 to 145)
No change in HDL and still lower than recommended (29, recommended: 40-60)
Just more real data to support the benefits of an Atkins WOE lifestyle.
