Best cholesterol in my life.

Total 223
Trigs 119 (range under 150)
HDL 96! ( range greater than 49)
LDL 103 ( range less than 130)
Total / HDL ratio 2.3 ( range less than 4.5)

Also had TSH and result 2.3 ( range .35-5)

THE POWER OF AVOCADO!!!

It's really the only thing I have changed in my diet. I've been vlc for many many years. Eaten lamb, beef , fish, eggs forever.
It's my main fat everyday. I also switched form regular mayo to an expeller pressed conola based mayo. I was a little worried about that. I've always been a mayo junkie but this seemed a better option than soy based.

So, I'm happy!!!
