It's time to rejuvenate this blog.
On August 15 my cholesterol was 233. I went vegan that same day and have not eaten anything with cholesterol in it since. Yesterday my cholesterol level was 193!! That's lower than it has EVER been. Here is my favorite recipe which I make up in bulk and feed off of for a week
1 pkg whole wheat macaroni
3 chopped peppers (red, green, orange, or yellow)
chopped onions (to taste and after getting tired of chopping I have gone to frozen)
I added tofu at first but found it didn't last the week so dropped it.
I mix all the above ingredients in a large bowl. When I am ready for a meal I put a generous serving of the mix in a bowl, add a tablespoon or so of veganaise and a generous tsp of nutritional yeast and stir.
Snacks consist of pistachio nuts. Sometimes a peanut butter sandwich. I eat Kashi cereal with soy milk for breakfast. Costco no longer carries my favorite but other grocery stores do.

Way to go Momcat! What was your LDL to HDL ratio? How were the triglycerides? I bet they are better too.

ReplyDeleteThat is GREAT!
Congratulations! I remember how impressed my doctor was when I got my cholesteral under 200 in less than 3 months of going vegan. Way better than taking a pill every day.
