Q: Just Got Results From Doc ! Am I Ok ?

My lab results show abnormal but I don't know what looks bad.
This is the 1st time at this docs office so they have no history to go by and I am scheduled to go back in a month.
Total cholesterol:204
LDL:145
HDL:37
kidney functions:normal
Glucose:101
TSH:1.67
triglycerides:100

I see the cholesterol could be a bit lower and know to use good oils (olive,flax) natural pb,avacados,oatmeal,etc. and I do. Also the HDL I hear should be 40 so its a bit low and I need to add more exercise. Right now I get 1.33 miles on my Gazelle and thats for 15 minutes at speeds over 6.0 w/175 calories burned appx. 3x week. Needs to be more I know.
Is there anything that jumps out at you? What are normal glucose & TSH (what is this anyways?) suppose to look like?
Thanks in advance for any & all help!

If it helps, my dad swears by apple cidar vinegar and lots of garlic! Also another natural method is resperate which can be used in conjunction with whatever else you're doing.
