To the Group Gurus

In Jan 2003, my Dr. determined I was diabetic. My A1C was at 10.9%, and
my triglycerides were over 700. He recommended a low fat diet and
Lipitor. I chose Atkins diet instead. In 90 days, my A1C was at 5.2% and
the Triglycerides were down to 147. He was astounded. 1 year later, I
did blood work again and cholesterol was still under  control and my A1C
had gone down to 4.6%. The LDL was slightly elevated at 118 so I thought
I might do something different. Again, he was astounded that it would
stay that way while 'Eating so much fat" in his words. During the 8
months since those tests I have modified my diet some. I use to eat 3-4
eggs for breakfast daily. Since I found Sami's Low carb bread (2 net
carbs/slice) BTW: this was confirmed to be accurate by one of our local
TV stations at the beginning of 'The Low Carb Craze'. See:
http://www.samisbakery.com/pd_detail2.asp?str=5 I've been eating 2
slices of cinnamon toast with Splenda for breakfast daily. Also, I have
been eating the 'low carb' candy a lot. My LDL has gone down to 87 but
my triglycerides have gone up to 168. Since the AMA's new definition of
'High Triglycerides' I am back in the 'High' range again. Personally I
feel that 168 is just fine. I think that the lowering of the limit from
199 to 149 was an effort on the AMA's part to be able to legitimately
prescribe more drugs earlier. With my A1C sitting at 4.9% on the most
recent tests, it's apparently not sugar as it was before.  

My question to the group is: What might be causing the triglycerides to
be elevated again.
1.    Alcohol Sugars from candy
2.    Alcohol (Martini's)
3.    The High Grain bread. It's made from Flax seeds, Millet, etx.
4.    Something else I have not mentioned

Thanks
