As it says in the description up above, I'm not much for posting personal stuff here, but I'm really happy about this, so here goes.
Back in April I went to the doctor and got a not so great report. Nothing horrible, but not so good. Low HDL (good cholesterol) high Triglycerides, and I put on 15 pounds last year. My diet wasn't that horrible, so it basically meant get my ass off the barstool and into a gym. Three months later after joining the gym and a few diet changes I'm happy to report.
I lost 12 pounds
Triglycerides are down to 150 from 236. <200 is desirable
HDL is up to 32 from 26, still a little low, but the doc is sure it will continue to improve as I continue to exercise.
Overall heart rate, BMI, flexibility and other stuff greatly improved as well, but I won't bore you with all that.
The real story here is, the little changes it took to get here don't feel like a sacrifice, and my overall energy is much better!
