You still...: You may still have hyper-insulinemia. You can get a three hour GTT and have parallel Insulin levels drawn to determine this! also, I have many male patients who are peripherally lean, but still have mesenteric body fat! do your parents carry weight on the middle? Not far from the tree the apple falls. Metabolic syndrome is both pervasive and largely hereditable!
