Know Your Numbers

Do any of my loyal readers remember my post last year The numbers tell?

Know Your Numbers

Know Your Numbers

Well, it’s that time of the year and I had my Know Your Numbers appointment this morning again.

All the numbers got much better from last year. And most even better than 2 years ago, when I was rocking! Yay!

Here’s the 3 year comparison:

Measurement 2011 2012 2013
Total Cholesterol 170 (desirable) 176 (desirable) 166 (desirable)
HDL 62 (exceptional) 48 (high risk) 54 (desirable)
LDL 94 (desirable) 108 (near desirable) 98 (desirable)
Total/HDL Ratio 2.8 (exceptional) 3.7 (recommended) 3.07 (exceptional)
Triglycerides 71 (normal) 101 (normal) 68 (normal)
BMI 24 (normal weight) 25 (borderline high) 23.6 (normal weight)
Body Fat 31% (borderline high) 32% (borderline high) 30.6 (recommended)
Glucose 90 (normal) 91 (normal) 76 (normal)

Yay to me and to my new Paleo way of eating!
