I am a 35 year old female I did Peat for a while, but I never like to do "extremes" so I modified it on my own a bit. I hear Peat in the back of my braid, but like I said, to follow something super strict, it's hard for me because I have a family and I like to eat with them and eat out once a week or twice. I am 5'3 and weigh 116 pounds. I want to build muscle and have a small layer of fat on my lower abdomen which I'd love to get rid of. So I worked with a trainer who gave great training,but the diet was ridiculous: low carb/low cal.
Anyways, regardless of my training, these are my lab results (before the trainer) and I wanted to share with you all for advice. And I take lots of supplements: multi, amla, magnesium glycinate, vitamin d, b complex, b folate (natural form), d-pinitol, iron, Nac, taurine, lysine, vitamin e, curcumin, cq10. And now I want to try bitter melon and fenugreek with ALA
Cholesterol is always 215-231, with LDL high: 160 and HDL 51
Anti-thyroglobuin is less than 40, estradiol 31, ferritin 29, free t3 3.6; FT4: 1.3, Progesterone .6 SHBG: 102, TOtal testosterone less than 20, free testosterone less than 5. Anti-TPO-Ab: less than 10 and TSH 2.71 Vitamin d: 40
I'm happy that my testosterone is low because I have been told I have PCOS, metabolic syndrome and I had lots of hair shedding, not great regrowth. I want to boost my ferritin because they say that supports healthy hair growth. All the sex hormones were from when I was in the follicular phase.
My biggest problem is my A1C: 5.7 so pre-diabetes. My mom has diabetes and I would love to prevent that. I would love to reverse my A1C, as in the past I've had it 5.3 which is still good. I would like to lose the belly fat that I carry so that I have a waist line.
I want to start with simple changes so that I'm not overwhelmed. I would like to also improve muscle mass and I'm not sure if doing 2 days of fast walking is better or worse than 5 days of fast walking, to help with sugar. I am so lost and confused. And I don't want to do extreme, but add some Peat stuff in that would really help me.
