I am way excited..when I started this journey back in March, I had my BF measured at 34% today I measured up at 26%.. I had a full blood panel down in march but just a health screening today.. My LDL cholesterol was 89 in march and 80 today.. doesn't seem like much..but to me it definitely makes a difference!! Also my waist was 37.4 inches today I measured at 31... I was within range for every thing for my health screening but the 1% BF .. :) I'm excited..but wish it would all go down a bit more! :)

    Congrats, do you happen to know what your HDL and your triglycerides levels are?

    cool that you dropped your LDL levels rather than your HDL levels

    This was actually a health screening for work, and they tested my levels by a finger prick..which i thought was strange for cholesterol. My blood sugar, I thought, was high at 98.. i have never had blood sugar issues..so in a few months I'll get the HDL and trig numbers again.
