I am SO pleased! Just got the blood test results back from my GP.
6 months ago, at my NHS health check, my cholesterol levels were flagged as needing to be watched. "Be careful with your diet" said the nurse. The ONLY change since then has been 5:2.
Here are my results:
Total cholesterol in January 6.1
Total cholesterol now 4.8
(GP said it should be below 5.2)
HDL in January 1.1
HDL now 1.2
(Should be 1.2 or above)
Total cholesterol divided by HDL in January 5.5
Total cholesterol divided by HDL now 4.0
(GP said it should be less than 4.5)
I am over the moon
I am looking forward to seeing the nurse for my next check as I now weigh 16lb less than the last time I saw her as well
