High Cholesterol :(

[mealiepuddin']

Just got blood test results from dietitian.

Everything hunky dory, but cholesterol high..:cry:

Not recommending medication, but obviously losing the weight will help.

I am definitely NOT going to give up. I have a family and I am not going to give them reason to worry.

Anyone with same probs?

Ive got high cholestorol (im on simvastatin) as well as diabetes so I also have more than enough reason to keep going!!

I've already reduced my diabetes medication due to healthier eating, no reason why I can't do that with the cholestorol too )

Good luck,

my old man (who is 41) has high cholesterol and is on tablets, which are basically keeping him alive.

My grandad (his dad) died from a heart attack when he was 40

there's a history of it for the men in my family so I probably have/will get it when I'm older :|

While it's true that family history is a known risk factor for heart disease, the major risk factors are still those that you can influence such as smoking, diet, and high blood pressure.

My is definitely diet related..... thankfully, nothing that can not be sorted!!
