As you know, I have been eating
Paleo which in a nutshell basically means no sugar, no processed foods, no
dairy, no grain and no alcohol. I did the Whole 30 Challenge and did all these
No’s for a full 30 days. I decided to keep eating Paleo but of course allowing
the some exceptions within reason. I am pretty sure I blew my exceptions for
the next month or so in this one last weekend. In any case, I am committed to
making this way of eating a permanent lifestyle choice. I was eagerly
anticipating my follow-up cholesterol appointment with my doctor last Monday. I
had to go on a small dose of Lipitor in the Spring because my cholesterol had
gone up into bad territory. One of the main reasons for going Paleo was losing
weight but I also wanted to get my cholesterol down again through my diet. I
actually went down a whopping 90 points! I told my doctor I was doing Paleo and
committed to it so she said I was young enough to go off the Lipitor and do
another cholesterol check in three months to see how much my diet is
contributing to this drop. I have my results taped to my bathroom mirror. It is
my goal to keep those numbers down so I don’t have to go on medication again. I
am confident that with the power of God within me I can conquer this cholesterol
for good.
Philippians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens
me.
