but I was dignosed with very, very high cholestral - total cholestral higher than Mike Williams weight in early 2005. I had another test (doctor assumed it was false it was so high, maybe I ate something that morning) and I had a cholestral reading of 342.
I changed my diet eventually going to mostly chef salad, and then dropping meat and even cheese from it. My wife gave me some Chinese aid, a white fungus broth which is supposed to help clean the blood. While on the road I eliminated almost EVERYTHING with cholestral from my diet, most fat and protein was almost entirely seafood and non-animal protein; I also did a lot of exerise bike riding.
I had my cholestral checked again when overseas in Hong Kong in July. My cholestral has dropped by a quarter and my weight by 15 pounds. Not enough though.
I was on road in August and September again and continued my diet.
I had my cholestral measured again this week and it was 170. That is over half of my cholestral and my weight is down by 23 pounds (I was down 25 at talgate) since January.
