I just had my bloodwork redone since starting low carb. Good news!
While I haven't lost tons of weight, only about 15 lbs so far (which actually is good for me) the test result are great.
A little intro, my plan is meat, eggs, fruit, veg and nuts. No bread, potatoes, milk, etc. But I do use cheese in recipes. I also have cheated more than once, but overall a lc diet. The old one was lowfat/highcarb. Aside from being overweight, (as if that isn't enough)
I had very high liver enzymes about 6 months ago and was dx'd with fatty liver. I am considerably less tired than before. I still get tired but I have a 2 year old & a 3 year old at home! I also no longer suffer from seasonal allergies, and this is the worst time of the year for me.
Before-Total cholesterol-234 now 169 (lowest I've ever had so far)
I don't have my old LDL or HDL, but they're fine now. I remember that my HDL was low before.
Triglycerides from 288 to 218- still need to get them down, but they are a lot better.
Liver enzymes are normal for the first time in about 5 years.
fasting blood sugar went from 105 to 80
All this and I've been eating steak and bacon! Chicken cooked with the skins on! I really can't believe it. I was really nervous to see the results of this test.
Just want to share!
