How I began IF – 18 months ago! My blood results, after 12 months on IF: Finally got to see the doc yesterday (4/4/13), to get the results from my recent fasting blood test – taken on the day exactly 12 months since I began IFing, 27th Febrary. He’d been on holiday for a week, and then it took a couple of days to get an appointment. BP 127/79 – which he described as ‘perfect’Cholesterol: HDL 1.7, LDL 3.1Total cholesterol/HDL ratio 2.9The doc said these results were as good as he’d ever seen
