[QUOTE="pavlosn, post: 641189, member: 22572"] @AndBreath Thank you I will make sure to watch. I suffer from monozygotic familial hypercholesterolemia, I have inherited a faulty gene from one of my parents, which means that independently of my dietary choices, without statins my cholesterol levels would really be sky high. I would hate to make matters worse through my diet. This explains why, while I fully understand the need to limit my carb intake, I am worried about increasing fats; but if I do not increase fats that only leaves increasing proteins and that is supposed to run the risk of kidney damage. Sometimes it feels like we can never win. Anyway, I guess the answer is to suck it and see. I will let my meter guide me on how many carbs to have and as for the rest I will not worry too much for now. If at the time of my next lipid count my levels have increased I will deal with any changes that need to be made then. The salad was delicious by the way although every bite was initially taken with a feeling of apprehension! Pavlos [/QUOTE]
