Be positive! Your Lipid profile report is showing improvement & overall favourable response. Parameters mentioned above have normalised. Although keep check on LDL also & try to maintain it below 100 preferably below 70.
Next Steps
Continue with your lifestyle modification on regular basis, low fat, low salt diet & exercise for atleast 1 hour daily.
