"Overall these look good, they're definitely improved."

Test	Old	New	Target Range		Quote
Total Cholesterol	433	290	125	200	"high" "much better"
Triglycerides	688	298	30	149	"a lot better"
HDL (good) Cholesterol	36	33	40	77	"that's okay"
LDL (bad) Cholesterol	unmeasurable	197	62	130	"high"
Creatinine (kidney function)	didn't say	1.52	0.79	1.33	"okay"
Glucose	didn't say	101	65	99/120	"fine"

"Overall these look good, they're definitely improved."

My LDL (bad) Cholesterol couldn't be measured last time because my Triglycerides were at 688, and the test doesn't work with them over 400.

  Woah...
  
  That's such a huge change I'd tend to distrust the first test.
  
  Keep doing what you're doing. (but add some move variety in your diet :)

    This was about the fourth test in a row that said my blood cholesterol was very high.

  Great progress you are making! My Dad was diagnosed with all that when I was a kid. Of course his diet radically changed the way I ate from then on, because Mom was only going to cook one meal for everyone. Those eating habits then still linger with me today. :)

  I'm really happy about that progress. When is the next one?
