I’m 5’5 and weigh 187 I recently had blood work done to make sure everything was ok before surgery and I look and see my ALT levels are 53 and cholesterol was 100 . I’m so sad . I know this either means I won’t get it or might be postponed. I’ve immediately stopped eating meats, dairy, added sugars, pasta bread and much more unhealthy things . Along with now going to the gym every day for 2 hours . I’m scared this won’t get better by may19 for my pre op blood work. Please give advice .
