[QUOTE="Roy Batty, post: 2688496, member: 575820"] I had the results back from blood taken on 19th March, today is the 21st. Hba1C 42 down from 45 on 6th January Total cholesterol 5.7 down from 6.9 (June 2023) HDL-C 2 up from 1.4 LDL-C 3 down from 4.86 Triglycerides 1.6 up from 1.4 TC:HDL-C 2.8 was 4.9 TG:HDL 1.8 was 2.3 (I used the Blood Code calculator as this takes account of the different units and their conversion factors). Now in the optimal range and not a signal of insulin resistance. I've lost 3 Kgs since the beginning of January, more importantly I strongly suspect I have increased the % of muscle as well as reduced the % of fat. I have a DEXA scan scheduled for 5th April so I'll have better data on my body composition and distribution. I aim to shed another 3 to 5 Kgs of fat, I'm confident this will bring my Hba1C down further and out of the pre-diabetic range. I don't know why my Triglyceride level has gone up. [/QUOTE]
