 I have the blood work of a healthy 20 something.....not a formerly morbidly obese diabetic 50 year old who made modest improvements...but a young body who was never damaged by years of obesity!!!  All the inflammatory markers were those of a young healthy body.     All my nutrient levels were well within normal limits.   No problems with Vit D or calcium or Iron.......B vitamins in range.  My lipid panel was good.   My PCP who cared for me for several years before my WLS cries every time she sees me.....and this blood work had us both crying.    We talk about the scale all the time here......but health!   That's the true marker.    Susan
