I am 53 female. Our numbers are fairly similar. Congratulations on the 90 lb loss!!! Way to go!!! I am looking to lose about another 40 ish lbs. how long ago was your panel listed done? Have you seen improvements since then?

Ok. Thank you. Will check into the testing you have suggested Have read some of that article and will go back and read again. I suspect my A1c was way higher before the diet change. Doctor didn't want to do that test but this last time I insisted. With the LDL's though, didn't I read somewhere that they may be high until I…

Thank you for your responses. I will look into the info offered. I was just wondering if anyone seen anything alarming in the results. And if so, suggestions.

Thank you for all the valuable information. Today's levels have been wonderful. 90 upon waking. Then checked again at 2 right before I ate a little something an it was 85. I'm not having spikes or drops so I think that's good. Downloaded the mySugr app an will keep logging to see what it estimates on A1c Thank you all…

Fasting insulin? Not morning first thing BG test? I am 5'3" and right now at 197 lbs. was up to 222. My blood glucose at the doc office was 96. He didn't say anything. I'm just kind of wondering on my own how LCHF is doing with my BG numbers. Wish I would have tested before starting this then I would know if this is…

Thank u for the kind words and support!! Hubby is fine now. We came home from surgery with a stent and that was not a fun time AT all. He has had several kidney stones and one Other surgery for them. Never a stent

Wow. Just seen that someone actually was wondering about me! How sweet (((hugs))). Sadly since hubbys surgery things went WAY down hill. But, remembering how I felt when I briefly did this way of life I am trying it once again. Again, sadly, weight is horribly up. Even more than before. I have hit a new high there

Welcome! I'm on day 30 and I am still learning. You will find very helpful information and a lot of encouraging people.

Thanks to all!! I have been doing some intermittent fasting anyway so just begun today like I had been. Was busy all morning then turned around it was 1:30 pm and I thought no wonder I'm a little hungry. Ha. Have done so good today and tomorrow is looking to be another busy one so that's good

This was very informative to me. Glad the op got this going. I've been reading so many conflicting this it was beginning to jumble in my head. I have read the launch pad but still having to read it again and again I guess to get it thru my thick scull

I was suprised and pleased to see this post this morning. Today is day 26 for me since changing things up with LCHF. Lost 9 lbs the first 10 days and so far as of this morning in at 9.8 lost. Was discouraged Measured this morning so now have something to go by. But. How often do you remeasure?

I am already on a magnesium supplement so that is covered. Will start keeping up on the sodium though. Usually have never had a problem with getting enough of that more towards the too much side. But then again that was the eat chips all day me ;). I am learning. Just slowly I guess. These past two weeks have been harder.…

Thank you for the responses. So far I am not experiencing any symptoms I don't think. Did have one day that ended in some dizziness but chalked it up to inner ear. Now I wonder. Also had one or two nights with mild cramp in my foot. Nothing bad Just now learning some about keto. I did begin reading butter bob. Looks very…

Gaaaa. Had a longer post and it vanished. Will b back later and try again

The tootsie pop was a grab impulse because I just wanted something
