[QUOTE="DanW13, post: 2426058, member: 531379"] Latest test results today! Looks a lot better I think than 5 months ago, cholesterol back to historic levels. Only downside was loss of muscle mass, but I knew that already & already working on that now gyms are open again. So looks like the low carb diet has worked for me, guess just got to keep it going. Very weird how cholesterol shot up & then back down again, does feel like my body has settled down over past 6 months - weight steady, far less hunger cravings, probably eating less also! I have eased off on some of the more very heavy saturated fats which I did indulge in heavily initially, so maybe that’s helped. Took a fasting blood test also this time, with just a glass of water in the hours before the test, Hba1c = 38 Total cholesterol = 5.6 HDL = 1.9 Non HDL = 3.7 Non Ratio = 2.9 Triglycerides = 0.99 LDL = 3.25 Qrisk = 2.2% BP = 122/69 Think overall the above is pretty good?
