Message: <blockquote data-quote="Grateful" data-source="post: 1691263" data-attributes="member: 438800">Thank you so much for your encouragement and the lovely posts. A couple of things worth mentioning:Firstly, I was worried that the somewhat higher fat in the diet, and the greater consumption of things like eggs (which I never used to eat at all!) would affect my cholesterol (lipid) figures. In fact, the figures improved compared to a year ago, which I don't quite understand but who cares? I was nowhere near the supposed "danger zone" anyway (a year ago, and today) but at least that is one less thing for the doctors to obsess about.Secondly, constipation. This went away completely, coinciding with the aforementioned daily addition of (a) a small quantity of chocolate and (b) a pint of beer. This is a not-insignificant lifestyle improvement, as it was quite a problem when I was "very low carb."</blockquote>
