THE KITCHEN TABLE NUMBERS SHEET
What's on the sheet
- A1c and fasting glucose — what they measure, what the ranges mean, and why one number can look fine while the other doesn't
- Triglycerides and the triglyceride/HDL ratio — the number almost nobody gets explained, and the one that moved the most for me
- Blood pressure — how to read the two numbers, and why a single reading at the doctor's office isn't the whole story
- Waist-to-height ratio — the 30-second check that needs no lab, no appointment, and no scale
- My starting point, in print — where my numbers sat in November 2025 (triglycerides 1,761, A1c 7.2%, blood pressure 192/114), so you can see the scale honestly
- A blank "My Numbers" column — fill it in at every lab draw and watch your own timeline build
I'm Charles Kirkland. In November 2025, I blacked out — and the labs that followed told me I'd been ignoring my own numbers for years. Nobody ever handed me one page that made those numbers make sense. So I made the page. It's free, and it's yours.
Free PDF, delivered by email. No spam — your sheet, then one plain-English lesson a week if you want it. Unsubscribe anytime.
Is it really free?
Yes. No card, no catch. The sheet is the same reference I keep in my own kitchen.
Is this medical advice?
No — it's education. It explains what the numbers mean so you can have a better conversation with your own doctor. Bring the sheet to your appointment; that's what it's for.
What happens after I download it?
The email with your sheet arrives in a few minutes. Page 2 of the PDF shows my Four Loads map — the framework behind the numbers — and where to get my book, The A1c Turnaround, if you want the full story. No pressure either way.
