If lunches are being provided at the confrences take a look at what your options are(if any)and go for the vegan friendly fair even if it is just salad.

My husband had borderline LDL and high HDL (& high total Chol), not requiring meds since HDL so high. He followed the 21 day kickstart to try to get the LDL down. He continued to eat no added fat vegan for several weeks after that as well (followed the Engine 2 diet). He is already a healthy eater and I can vouch that he did not cheat. His LDL cholesterol actually went up a few points. We were both so disappointed. We are beginning to believe that some people just have higher LDL cholesterol than others.
