My appointment with my doctor yesterday went very well. She was very pleased that I had lost 17 pounds. She said that she doesn't usually see a weight loss in January. :) I made it through the holidays. Now I hope to lose 17 more pounds in the next three months. She was also all smiles about my blood work. Here are my numbers before becoming a nutritarian and now.
January 2012 June 2011 Normal Range
CHOL 199 225 100 - 200
TRIG 90 118 0 - 150
HDL 65 (Good Cholesterol) 87 35 - 60
LDL 110 115 80 - 130
These numbers are after three months of improved eating. I go pack in June and she said she is anxious to repeat my blood test.
I must admit I wish the weight would come off a little faster. I have always been very slow to lose and very fast to gain. :) My weakness is exercise. I know the numbers would be much better if I could just get into the habit of exercising. I seem to have settled into eating this way very well, now I need to develop the habit of exercise.
No matter how much I lose I know that I am healthier and that should be the real goal.
