    How Soon Should I Get Tested?

    I have been on induction since 12th Sept but had a few cheats. Been cheat free now for 28 days.

    I did not get my cholesterol/bp/triglycerides checked before I started, but they were very bad about year ago.

    I want to impress the doc with my blood work. Is 28 days too soon?

    28 days cheat free shoud be ok. Maybe go for 2 months to be on the safe side.

    It never ceases to amaze me of how easy and how effective this ***diet*** is!!




    I have since re-gained a bit of weight, but that is soon to be coming off again!

        Dr. Atkins said wait at least 6 weeks in DANDR. I agree with Richt, I'd wait until the 2 month mark.

          I did mine at about 6 months...not that I'm advocating waiting that long...but mine dropped DRASTICALLY and they weren't bad to begin with pre-Atkins.

            actually you want to wait. the human body's response to any weight loss is to up the cholesterol levels in the blood stream so wait for this temperary increase to stop and then you will get the atkins lowering effects showing up.
