February 1st, Month no. 2 in my cholesterol battle!


Day No. 32!
The fish oil pills only lasted one week, their side effects were too much for me (constant taste of fish, yuck). I've been taking pectin supplements for three weeks. If found studies that show fruit pectin naturally lowers LDL levels and its only side effect is curbing your appetite (not a bad thing!). Anyhow, today is day number 32 of looking at labels for cholesterol and trans-fat content. I will have more blood work done in a few weeks to see my new cholesterol levels (hopefully LOWER). Oh, and today my Florida countdown begins, 23 days until I head to the Sunshine State!!!!
