Hey all,
My apologies if this has already been covered before but I’ve literally just come back from Doctor appointment.
Last year (September) I had a routine blood test and my doctor said my Cholesterol was high and what had I changed. I had cut flour and sugar from my diet but was eating Paleo (not Keto). It was 7.5. Normal is apparently 5.5 or below.
I had went Keto from December, so 5 and a bit months. This time my blood test showed my Cholesterol is 9.6 and my doctor is having kittens. I told her I was eating a Ketogenic diet and she told me I was eating too much fat.
Has anyone experienced these results before? I thought it was hard to over eat fat, and I stop eating when I’m satisfied but perhaps I’m eating too much.
I didn’t agree with the balanced diet she gave me, it looked full of carbs. Funny, I noticed my reaction to the pictured food… things like eat low fat cheese and margarine. (omg no).
I’m not expecting medical advice here, obviously.
Confused.
