[QUOTE="hearts and roses, post: 489963, member: 2211"] [COLOR=#2f4f4f][SIZE=2]I have to get my cholesterol down also. Just got the results back - NOT GOOD. My doctors recommendations: No smoking, cut way back on fats in my diet (not really an issue but I could stand to lose a few fats), MOVE, cut back on sugars of all kind. The truth is that it IS a lifestyle and eating change, like it or not. Here are the choices: change the eating habits or risk a stroke/heart attack. For me? I'll change my eating habits any day over having a stroke or heart attack. Tell H to svck it up and start eating healthier. For example, if I have to give up the cream in my coffee? I simply won't drink coffee anymore. Can't do it without cream. I try to use either splenda or agave nectar as my sweetener of choice always. Cookies? I eat one or two and that is it. Baking? Use oil as much as possible over butter, or, better yet, substitute the oil/butter with ground flaxseed and applesauce! Instead of cereal and cream? Have a bowl of steel cut oats with a touch of agave, cinnamon, and milk - I add crushed walnuts and dried cranberries. Delicious and very filling! For a rich dessert, take some part skim ricotta, add a touch of vanilla and a dash of splenda. MMMmmmMMMm, very yummy! Or, you can add a touch of splenda and some lime zest instead of the vanilla - that is really good also. There are ways to make small changes that will benefit his cholesterol levels - he has to be willing to make the change. Check out some of the recipes from the south beach diet - they are delish and particularly wonderful for lowering cholesterol![/SIZE][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
