well, it's time for my yearly anyway, but if I want to stay in tier 1 for my family health insurance deductables, I need to pass 4 of the following

Waist < 40

Blood Pressure < 130/85

HDL < 45

LDL < 130

Tryglycerides < 150

Glucose < 100


I pass all of these every year, and this year should be the same.

1: how long do you fast.. My doctor told me 10-12 hours, yet work tells me its only after midnight.. which is it?


2: LOL I just drank a whole bunch of cranberry juice, and now will just drink water the rest of the night.. is that going to make any difference at all? any tips??

Nope I'm scrawny, but if I dont get my 4 or 5 meals a day I get cranky. No fasting for me.

For my glucose test it was from midnight on. Water only after that.
