Excellent results, well done from a fellow Nova Scotian
I just started the WFPB on Jan. 01,2017. Had my bloodwork done on Feb. 23. Not quite as good as yours but a big change from last year. Look forward to the day when I can say I've been following this lifestyle for a few years now.

Nice!! Kinda weird that you're not deficient in protein and calcium, though. (Joking, in case that's not obvious. )

Thanks! I'm very happy with the test results. I've become progressively more strict against consuming junk/ oil over the years, and results like these help keep me motivated in staying healthy
