Okay.. my blood test results

Okay so first results are from September 2012 weighing at 269, second number is from March this year (about 60+ lb down), remember I started the diet in November and by that time weighed almost 10 lb more than I did when I first had my blood work done in September. But here is the change in my numbers from Sept to March, 6 months and 4 months on the plan.

Weight 269 vs about 205
Blood Pressure - 130/80 vs 112/76
HDL - 27 vs 24
LD - 102 vs 124
Total - 189 vs 180
VLDL Cholesterol - 66 vs 32

Glucose - 134 vs Hmmm, can't find that they tested that this last time I will have to call them and find out<

Triglycerides - 300 vs 160 (yeah I know, crazy!) :carrot:

I stil I need to get my thyroid retested as it was elevated when I had it done in March, before it was always normal. I just keep forgetting to stop in been so busy with work and the kids's school stuff!

Anyway... thought I would share!

Wow, what a great improvement. Congratulations!

For anyone who thinks IP isn't healthy, they certainly can't argue with those facts!

This is a good read for all those people who have never been overweight and don't get that this is a medical issue...
Congrats! I'm hoping that my fatty liver and pancreas show improvement once I lose more weight too!

Congrats!!! I'm not doing IP, but even so, I too had vast improvement in blood work with a 20-lb weight loss.
Feels good to know things are improving on the inside too, isn't it?!
