35 year old, Fatty liver.

Hello all.

Recently been told I have fatty liver disease, all those years of sitting on my bum and eating crap has caught up with me... I rarely drink alcohol, id say once every 3 - 4 months. My first blood tests ALT level shown 72 and my 2nd a month later shown 87.

Im currently overweight, 19 stone. 5 foot 11 inches.

My diet was awful, crisps, biscuits, processed foods. I've had a complete revamp over the last two weeks, cut out all fizzy drinks and my only drinks are water, black coffee, mint tea and green tea. No milk.

Im following a mediterranean style diet, and have been walking at least 10k steps a day (averaging 15k at the moment), im also taking milk thistle supplements.

So far ive lost 4lbs of weight, which I know is a big factor in this.

My questions are:

\- Although 87 ALT is high, is it dangerously high, should I expect any sort of side effects/pain in the near future? Im completely in the unknown with this.

\- Is there anything other than the above I could be doing to help myself?

Thanks Reddit!
