High Cholesterol After the Sleeve

Happy Saturday!!! I wanted to share with everyone my blood results and see if this makes any senses? I had my 3 month blood work, so far I am done 65 pounds. When I was 320 pounds my blood work was PERFECT! How is it that now I come out with high cholesterol! Like really? I have been overweight my whole life and have had perfect blood work now my cholesterol is high, now that I eat like a bird and make healthy choices? Believe it or not the things I was scared of are fine like all my vitamins and my iron. Any one experienced this? Any rational explanation? I meet with my nut on Monday and I can’t wait to have her explain this to me.

Some people experience a temporary increase in cholesterol during rapid weightloss. Also your triglycerides may be a bit higher too since it's likely you're eating more meats and cheeses now. My triglycerides are actually in the normal range now rather than being off the charts low as previously.
