    Got To Share This With You

    i went to the doctors this morning

    to have my first blood test results looked at, and also my blood pressure,

    my blood repssure is down to 148/80 from 160/90 and i lost 22lbs
    this is in around four weeks.

    the doctor said "are you not eating?"
    i said no but i didnt tell him i was doing atkins for fear of the usual backlash


    the result is i dont need blood pressure tablets now, and all my cholesterol levels are fine.


    he ended the appt by saying "whatever you are doing keep dong it" and i will see you in four months

              Well done

              Next time maybe take a list of a few days menus for the doc to see without using the 'A' word and see if he approves!!
              Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
              Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!



              Check out our Low Carb Recipes website and add to it!!

                      Way to go! I work with doctor's everyday and most are supportive of my WOE with Atkins, but I know some just won't let it go! When your doctor sees your continued success and better health, he won't give you much trouble! Keep it up!
