    What an inspiration ✨ You are so incredibly strong:). Did you just count calories and exercise? Low carb??

    Yes. While I never had ‘high cholesterol’ enough to take medicine they did get turned around as far as ratio of good and bad.
    Blood pressure is near perfect and oxygen at 98.
    Love those numbers
