After 10 weeks on Weight Watchers and a 30 lb weight loss, I had my labs drawn the other day. My fasting glucose is 90. My total cholesterol is 160 and triglycerides are 117. My HDL (good cholesterol) is 45 and my LDL (bad cholesterol) is 80.

My CBC (complete Blood count) was perfect. Good Hemoglobin and Hematocrit.

I was relieved. I had never had my cholesterol drawn and I was really worried. But I feel so much better now.

Well...weigh in is Saturday morning. We'll see what transpires this week.

Good for YOU! Nancy!

I'm down 22 pounds the last month, about HALF where I need to be, it's not easy, and is something to be PROUD of, you have done a good thing!

That's great, keep up the good work. As soon as I have my knee surgery done and can get to walking again I hope my weight will start coming down again.
