Highlights from this day
- triple_ag_tom — follow up fast properly or do not bother. an eight hour fast and a twelve hour fast are different tests 18:55
- VialBot — New independent result logged — FGP, lot E-2205, purity 99.4% (VendorInvestigate). 19:41
- eight_mm — apob is the better marker and it is harder to get. i track both because i can only get one reliably 19:56
- fibre_first — apob or ldl, which one are you all actually tracking 20:21
- fibre_first — my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely moved at all, your mileage will differ 20:25

apob if you can
apob or ldl, which one are you all actually tracking
| Test | Why now |
|---|---|
| Fasting insulin | impossible to get a true baseline afterwards |
| Full lipid panel with apoB | the comparison is the whole point |
| HbA1c | 90-day average, so it lags your start |
| CMP + CBC | cheap, and the reference for everything after |
| Ferritin, B12, TSH | these fall quietly on a low intake |
alt and ast coming down as you lose liver fat is common and is a good sign, ask me again in a month
my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely moved at all, your mileage will differ
retest it
