Wow, just seen your results, well done that’s brilliant, you should be so proud of yourself, so pleased for you, you’re obviously doing everything you can & it’s paid off
Your diet & exercise is working brilliantly for you & statins are lowering your chlosteral so well
You just need to keep it up now
Once again well done, really proud of you
Enjoy your day
