One week into this... I had oatmeal today for the first time in a long time (how unlike me)!

I spoke with Dr. Esselstyn just after I started the diet and he had recommeded that I check my lipids every two months. I saw my primary care doctor yesterday and explained the diet I was on.

She said that it would be fine to check cholesterol every two months, but not to expect a change in levels due to diet for about 4 months.

Not that I doubt my doctor, or anything - but I'm just wondering what experience other have had. How long before you see results?

Thanks,
Marty
