Hey there everyone, I've been kind of scarce the LCHF MFP boards lately and my apologies for that; however, I recently got some news that I just had to share:

2014 (a couple of months into starting LCHF / Keto)
(Good) HDL Cholesterol 31 mg/dL
(Bad) LDL Cholesterol 118 mg/dL
Triglycerides 132 mg/dL
Total Cholesterol 175 mg/dL
Chol/HDLC Ratio 5.6

2015 (still in the weight-loss phase)
(Good) HDL Cholesterol 44 mg/dL
(Bad) LDL Cholesterol 157 mg/dL
Triglycerides 76 mg/dL
Total Cholesterol 216 mg/dL
Chol/HDLC Ratio 4.9

2016 (couple of months into maintenance)
(Good) HDL Cholesterol 64 mg/dL
(Bad) LDL Cholesterol 212 mg/dL
Triglycerides 61 mg/dL
Total Cholesterol 288 mg/dL
Chol/HDLC Ratio 4.5

2017 (fully in maintenance now for just over year and at a relatively stable weight)
(Good) HDL Cholesterol 65 mg/dL
(Bad) LDL Cholesterol 73 mg/dL
Triglycerides 35 mg/dL
Total Cholesterol 145 mg/dL
Chol/HDLC Ratio 2.2

This is the first time in my entire life that I can ever remember having just about perfect cholesterol...took me long enough to get there too!! lol Good thing I kept telling my Doctor to chill where the cholesterol numbers were concerned!

Okay, I can tell I've been gone to long when I realized I posted to the wrong board!!
