F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!
Did you tell them you were doing the beach?
Is it possible that SBD lowered everything already?


So happy for you Hon!

Mel,

That is great news!! My DH (and fellow Beacher!) has lost 36 pounds. He just had his done and got the results last night. Total 150, down from 199. His HDL is only 32, which isn't so good, but that's exactly what it was before. All of the reduction was in the LDL (bad) cholesterol, so that is good, and of course that means that the ratio of good to bad has improved a lot. His triglicerides were down a lot, too, though I can't remember offhand the number.

Way to go, Mel!! I really believe in this plan! I know it's a good plan just based on my success, how relatively easy it is, and how I really am losing more belly fat than from anywhere else! I'm downright voluptous right now!! LOL. I've got an hourglass figure that I never had before, large or small.

Anyway, these numbers make me even a stronger believer!!

Congrats again on this good news!!

Jill K.
