Hello Hansi,
Well done in bringing the cholesterol numbers down. Am happy for you.
Now questions:
Do you have any side effects?
BMI gone down?
How do you feel in your overall health?
Am asking the above question to understand high cholesterol and low cholesterol health indicator. Blood test gives us the numbers.
No side effects, BMI hasn't really changed, I need to lose more weight as my BPis raised. Next appointment is in April when I will get another 24 hour BP monitor. Feel okay, doing a regular walk each day when it's fine, and still have the occsional fry-up!
I try to keep to a low fat diet but occasionly go mad and have a full English breakfast, and I enjoy a drink at the weekend. Cheese is my downfall, and I'm trying to cut down on that. Not easy
Good.
