Okay, so I'm only "kind of keto," since I don't keep track of whether I'm in ketosis and I'm not completely strict on staying under 50g carbs, but it was requested that I post the results of my recent bloodwork, so here we go!

Also, includes some of notes of my thoughts, given my personal situation.

My current goals are 50g carbs (10%), ~100g protein (20%), 150g (70%) fat, and I get anywhere from 30-80g of my fat from saturated fats (largely meat/dairy, some coconut).

Sodium: 138 mmol/L (range: 135-145, so "low normal"; in fairness, I don't seek out salt, but neither do I intentionally avoid it)

Potassium: 4.1 mmol/L (range: 3.5-5.1, so damn near perfect)

Glucose (fasting): 109 mg/dL (range: 65-99, so a little on the high side, but I have PCOS and known issues with insulin resistance)

A1C: 5.5 (range: 4-6, so a little north of middle)

Average glucose estimate: 111 (range: 68-126; higher than I'd like, but not bad, considering the insulin resistance; I almost fear what it'd be like on the higher carb way of eating)

Creatinine: .75 mg/dL (range: 0.4-1.10, so about middle)

BUN: 12 mg/dL (range: 8-25, so fairly good)

BUN/Creat ratio: 16 (range: 10-20, so about smack dab middle)

Vitamin 17 ng/mL (range: 30-100, so way low; go figure, it's February and I'm in one of the cloudiest cities in North America)

(And now, for the fun numbers!)

Total Cholesterol: 205 mg/dL (Oh noez! Above the "desirable" cutoff of 199, so "borderline high")

HDL: 51 mg/dL (range: 40-59, so woot! pretty damn good)

LDL (calculated): 140 mg/dL ("borderline high," which is ranged 130-159; I take with a grain (or maybe I should have more? I am running low on sodium, after all ) of salt, given what this diet does to LDL particles)

Trigs: 72 mg/dL ("normal" is anything below 150, so....yeah)

(These come from http://www.hughcalc.org/chol.php )

TC/HDL ratio: 4.0 (preferably under 5.0, ideally under 3.5; lab papers say 4.4 is average risk, 3.3 is 1/2 average risk; so, very much good, almost ideal)

HDL/LDL ratio: 0.367 (preferably over 0.3, ideally over 0.4, so not quite ideal, but very much in the "preferable" range)

triglycerides/HDL ratio: 1.412 (preferably under 4, ideally under 2, so very much ideal)

Misc notes: I've also been quite sedentary the past few months, with only some walking (which has dropped off since the weather got f-ing cold), due to dessicated discs in my spine, which kept me from doing just about anything. The inflammation from that probably hasn't helped matters. I'm also in the process of getting tested for high cortisol (seems largely due to environment stuff and a stress feedback loop, but that was present at the time of the blood draw). PCOS also screws with all kinds of things, including blood sugar and lipid levels, so there's that, too.
