I started a Plant Based eating regime, in August. I was over weight, had quit exercising for the most part and I have been a Type 1 Diabetic for 33 years.
By January, I had lost almost 50 pounds, cut my Insulin intake by half and cut back on a few medications.
Today, after meeting with my Endocrinologist, here my Lipid Panel:
Cholesterol-109
Triglycerides- 74
HDL-40
NON HDL-69
LDL-54
I am somewhat disappointed at my HDL, as I have been exercising on a regular basis. I am very happy that I can quit taking my Statin, which I've been on for 12+ years.
I will report back in another 3 months; excited to see my numbers improve as I step up my exercise regime.
