Cholesterol - LARGE drop!

Postby VickyJ » November 8th, 2006, 8:06 pm

I just wanted to say that I had my annual health screening at work today, and what a difference! My cholesterol was 209 last November, and today it is 128! I'm not sure how much of that can be contributed to being on Medifast since July, but I'd say quite a bit. Cutting out sugar and processed foods, and practically giving up red meat, not to mention being down over 25 pounds (I lost a few before starting MF) has helped a lot! My BMI is now in normal range at just under 23. I really love this plan.....
