Weight loss dilemma

[forge]

ok, that explains it, you are still in weight loss mode and using body fat. you should be ok with what you're eating then

I have not lost much if any the last 4 weeks.

My diet is primarily for BS and weight loss is a bonus.

When I changed endros he said he wanted to get me off insulin jabs and I was off it in a week.

My overall cholestrol is high - 7. My HDL has gone up to 1.4 and my trigs are 0.51. My LDL is 5 BUT the standard cholesterol test does not give a breakdown of LDL and my understanding is that this can be broken down into harmful and non harmful. My bs is now at non diabetic levels in the day but always prediabetic as fasting I have lost 4 stone since last January eating lchf.
For me this means:
Brekkie: 1 sausage or kippers and 2 eggs
Lunch: now couple of pieces of cheese and 2 small handfuls of nuts
3pm 2 handfuls of nuts
Dinner: meat or fish and veg cooked in butter or with a cream sauce or a salad with olive oil. My salads are always made up of avocado, olives, cherry tomatoes, feta and cucumber.
Sometimes: chocolate mug cake made with ground almonds or frozen berries and cream for homemade ice cream.
Couple of squares of very dark choccie.
Half a bottle of wine per week.

That sounds sensible no extreme fats except for butter and that may or may not be a bit heavy and it is delivering for you.

My cholesterol is reasonable but the good is low and the bad is high it always has been. I could not handle Lipitor it crippled me.I can't remember the exact numbers and too lazy to search for the report.

I'm glad you couldn't manage Lipitor. I could be wrong but Im fairly sure there was a really bad report about it recently and we'd like to keep you for several years to come! What is your cholesterol breakdown - I'm nosey!

I don't remember the actural numbers I am only interested in how they rate to normal so that is what I commit to memory it will be here somewhere tho. We have two households of furniture in one house at the mo, so finding stuff is not that easy.
