6 month change after changing diet and losing 35# but still high- what next?!
So, I (M37) posted here about 7 months ago. I got some blood work done and found my cholesterol was very high. I spoke to my doctor and he recommended some dietary changes and I followed every single one of them. I exercised, lost weight (208>173) have been feeling great then went back for blood work 6 months later and my results were still high. I have another checkup with my doc but I'd love to hear from others what I can do to help get my levels normal without statins.
I have little kids at home and the thought of leaving them kills me. I want to be as healthy as I can but would like to try to avoid taking statins.
Thanks!
