What the hell?

How do you loose 100 pounds ... have great cholesterol levels ... and then have a heart attack? 

What the hell!

Not what I expected.  

Hubby is going to be fine ... but I guess we are going to have to do some re-evaluating of everything we have been doing.

  1. OMG, I am SO sorry! (p.s. cholesterol levels ain't what it's cracked up to be. It's the TYPE of cholesterol; big fluffy is good, small sticky is bad. and it takes a special test to figure that out.) Wow, had his blood pressure been ok? Anyhow, I'm so sorry. :(

    p.s. he might not have 'going to be fine' or even SURVIVED, had he not lost the 100 lbs. Seriously. This is a blessing in disguise. :: hugs ::

  2. Gwen that is what I keep telling myself ... but let me tell you ... I feel like I have been attacked ... doctors, nurses and family members telling me that the "diet" is what almost killed him.

  3. WHAT? Seriously? That's ridiculous. Probably because of the fat/protein, I'm guessing? Ask the jackasses if they've ever heard about the paleo regime, how INTENTIONALLY skewed the Ansel Key's so-called study was that started the whole damned thing, etc. They are full of crap and it sickens me they are beating you (and your hubby) up over this. I would email Mark Sisson directly and ask for some guidance. :(
