[QUOTE="hels, post: 874181, member: 54992"] [USER=110569]@dancer[/USER], yes, I will just do what I can with diet and exercise. I live in a hilly area and walk a lot whilst carrying a baby and pushing a toddler and I tend to walk quickly. Whilst pregnant I swam 2k 2 or 3 times per week and hope to get back into that as well as circuits/HIIT when I can get childcare. As for the diet I low carb with what I'd call normal fat intake. I don't consciously eat extra fat but don't avoid it. I will reduce red meat and cheese consumption and increase the fish. I already eat lots of veg/salad. I'm going to try to introduce porridge (maybe in the evening rather than breakfast to see if I tolerate oats better). I'm still hoping that the extreme value was due to only being 7 weeks post partum & breastfeeding. Usually in the uk they recommend leaving at least 6 weeks before doing lipid test but some other places advise 4 months and other literature has suggested it can take a year for levels to return to normal.
