What Is The Effect Of Over-fasting On Blood Sugar Tests And Lipid Profile Tests?

I was supposed to have my blood sugar and lipid profile tests done. I fasted for 16 hours but the laboratory staff told me that the ideal fasting time for the mentioned tests was 10-12 hours. I was told to come back and make sure that i only fasted within 10-12 hours and should not over fast. I wonder why i should not over fast.
