The results for this bloodspot was 227umol/L!

My weight lifting seems to be helping quite a bit with the bloodspots! Also, I've rounded down with my exchanges, which has helped quite a bit (I rarely ever hit 2 exchanges exactly).

I'm trying to cook my own food now to cut down on visceral fat that my weighing scales report back, so next results should be interesting...

@soheb Is this really the latest thread we had? If so, that's probably my fault, I hadn't done one in a way too long time...

Well, I finally did it today. And it was looking really good after four circles. Maybe we should trade cards, you would have good use for five circles and I seem to hit the limit at four. ๐Ÿคช
