One good note from the bloodwork. Looks like my NAFLD is gone π
Now to deal with the other two metabolic issues.
Insulin resistance and triglycerides.
All of this boils down to basic dietary changes.
I've tried metamucil before. Makes me have increased heartburn /Gerd , but that was before I ever took nexium so will see how that works now. Either way major changes needed

07.03.2026 13:54 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0that would help fix both issues real quick. main thing is the carbs... got to axe them

My primiary issues are the triglycerides and A1c...all related to insulin resistance and my fatty liver lol. so before i get put on meds, i need to make some dietary changes.

Goal lose 20lbs.
Glad I've been taking berberine. Obviously been helping.
Already have NAFLD , so some of this is not surprising. Just means alter diet to combat it.
I hike 2 days a week and I am walking constantly all day as a nurse so exercise isnt the primary driver here
So no cookies, muffins, ice cream, etc.
More protein and fiber, far less carbs.
Limit potatoes and rice (oh gods not rice! π)
Guess I am going to take up my intermittent fasting again.
Got the other half. A1c is at prediabetic level of 6.1 so I got insulin resistance, and my triglycerides are to high
Guess who needs to alter their diet slightly and up the exercise.
Well half my bloodwork looks great.
Now waiting on the other half

Me as a nurse: effortlessly giving painless injections all day. π
Me getting my own bloodwork: βWaitβ¦ why is that needle so big??β ππ©Έ
So serious questionβ¦ if you call a vampire a mosquito, is that technically a slur or just accurate taxonomy? π§ββοΈπ¦
