Cholesterol

Well, I discovered two things yesterday.

First, it's harder than I thought to eat enough points in a day. I completely flubbed yesterday's numbers, and todays, while better was still much heavier later in the day, and I had to resort to a protein shake for an evening snack to get within 5 points of where I should be.  Going to have to load breakfast and lunches up a bit more to make up for this.

Second, my doctor has given me time limits.

At nearly 38, he's told me I have until I'm 40 to bring my cholesterol down to normal levels, and I have six months to show some improvement from where it is now or we'll be putting me on medication.

Cholesterol: 6.4
Triglycerides: 2.12
HDL: 1.0
LDL:4.48

The numbers I SHOULD have

Cholesterol <5.2
Triglycerides <2.3
HDL >1.3
LDL <3.0
