Hi all, so quick back story on me. Diagnosed with T2 Diabeetus on 5/30/17. I had been on a downward spiral for years and weighed 288lbs. I was in for a cold and decided to have the doc run my blood just for the hell of it. Came back A1C of 6.5 and extremely cholesterol and triglycerides.
I immediately went low carb. Then found out about keto and went keto at about 25-30 carbs a day. Fast forward to today, I am about 200 pounds depending on water that day.
I had my blood drawn yesterday(first lipid panel since diagnosis) in anticipation for my checkup next week and wow what a difference 88lbs makes. Pictures below.
Lipid panel on diagnosis day at 288lbs. Uncontrolled diet
Lipid Panel on 11/7. 5 months of keto later. 200lbs
Now I am no doctor, but from what I can see, my cholesterol looks better. My Dr. did place me on a statin on my D-Day. I only took it for a month and discontinued because of the side effects. I stopped the statin roughly 2 months before this draw.
Urinalysis did show some protein in the urine. Not sure what that is.
