I struggled with high cholesterol when I used to eat a low fat diet. Several months after I went low carb I had my levels tested and they were great and they have stayed that way ever since. Atkins really does make a big difference. I think that I have my husband just about convinced. At his last check up his triglyceride levels were down in the normal range. He has been fighting this for as long as I've known him. The last time he had his blood work done he was eating very low carb and that was the big difference. His doctor also said that all of those refined carbs are really bad for triglycerides. Hubby has another check up in about a month so we'll see if he is still where he needs to be. If so, I think he will finally be completely convinced. It really does take a long time to get that low fat diet myth out of your head. Sounds like you are doing great Glenn. Also, congrats on the addition to your household!
