I went to the doctor yesterday to get my blood test done. On this adventure you must go get a blood test every 6 weeks to see if there are any improvements in your blood profile. I missed the first 6 weeks and now on my second 6 weeks, I was ready to go for it. It's important that you fast 10-12 hours before the blood test so that you can get accurate readings on the following:
- Lipid Profile (Total Cholesterol, HDL Cholesterol, LDL Cholesterol, Cholesterol/HDL Ratio and Triglycerides)
- Diabetes Mellitus Profile (Glucose)
- Liver Profile (Total Bilirubin, Total Protein, Albumin, Globulin, A/G Ratio, SGPT/ALT, SGOT/AST, Gamma GT, Alkaline Phosphatase, Lactate Dehydrogenase)
- Kidney Profile (Sodium, Potassium, Chloride, Urea)
- Serum Creatinine (Creatinine)
This is actually just the basic blood test and most clinics will offer it in a package.
I look forward to receiving my blood test in a couple of days and to make a comparison from when I first did the blood test prior to going on this adventure.
Dr. Lim also took my blood pressure and I was so happy when he told me it's 110/70! Normal range is 120/80. I still remember when it was the time I was running around busy helping out with Rozi's wedding in June that my blood pressure was 180/90! I recall I was so upset that I cried...
Now, progress has been made and I'm so pleased with myself!
Your choc level is a tad low but acceptable, your energy level is excellent, smile level just bright enough, commitment level very high (in high positive range), attention attracting sensibility just below the level acceptable (take two sizes smaller of clothes with plenty of water and see how you feel in a week, then call me in the morning), glow factor positively attractive score #8 (#11 means walking on air & smiling ear to ear even in REM sleep mode).........tread lightly and reward yourself with one extra salad leaf today. Well done!
