have you had your serum lipids checked yet ?

I suggest you do . I had a shock after learning that my levels shot up while LCing in the early days . As I have a history of hypercholesterolaemia in my family , I got a real fright .

I was eating too much saturated fats and had to change my eating habits . After I gained that weight ,I found that whatever I did ,nothing would get the extra flab off .

I found for myself , in the early days that the only way I could loose was by doing LC and lower fat . I know this is contra to what you hear ,but I found that if I ate alot of fat , I actually put on weight . So in my experience and YMMV , I dont believe in the doctrine " eat fat to loose fat " .

I am just plain dissappointed and have given it all up for a fully balanced diet , not dependent on potassium and cal/mag tablets for my minerals and being terrified of constipation with its consequences.
