Last year hubby had some routine blood tests, which much to our suprise showed he had high cholesterol, his reading was 6.8,hubby is not a bit overweight,infact he would be underweight at the time for his height, however he was always bragging to me about all the yummy bad food he was having at work, well i guess it came back to bite him you know where lol.

We were not sure if it was hereditary or not, so he changed his diet dramatically, and we just had the results, he is now so proud that it is now 4.6,competely acceptable level and even his good hdl was over the 1 mark, which apparently is quite hard to get,the nurse said he must have been working out hard, what a laugh, never does one single bit of exercise,sits at work most of the time too,guess he is just one of the lucky ones, of course on the down side he lost almost a stone in weight and now at 6.1 he weighs a mere 66kgs,he is very thin, always was, but even more so now.

All his other tests came back really good too, his PSA,blood,liver , diabetes same result as mine,kidneys, very happy about kidneys as hubby had nephritis as a teenager, so we have to keep a close eye on them, so all in all Hubby is rather healthy, I am going to take some of the credit though as i was the food police, did my fair share of growling when i saw him taking anything not so good, but hey it was worth it 100 per cent.

Anyhow just wanted to share our good news.
