update on the earlier thing triglycerides halved. is that the weight or the compound
get fasting insulin at baseline. you cannot go back and get it once you have started

a small egfr dip is often dehydration. rehydrate and retest before you panic
thyroid moving slightly is common enough that i would repeat it before doing anything, n of 1 obviously
sorry to jump in apob or ldl, which one are you all actually tracking
is it too early to retest a1c at week 15
lab error maybe
i had a potassium that came back high and the repeat was normal. the tube had been knocked about
see somebody

probably dehydration

right so my numbers: a1c and triglycerides both moved a lot, ldl barely moved at all
the FLOW result is why my nephrologist changed her position on this entirely
get a baseline

unrelated but if you only get one thing, get a fasting insulin. it is the one that becomes impossible later
the most useful thing i did was get a full panel before i started. everything since has been comparable

my potassium came back weird and the retest was normal, whats that about
fasting insulin
crp is worth adding if you can, it moves in a useful direction on this
thats a big move
