Cholesterol

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I eat like a 7 year old.  I like Fruity Pebbles for breakfast.  Until February this year instead of milk I would use half and half or even heavy cream.  Then I got a cholesterol test!
The doctor said my number, a little over 200 wasn't high enough for medication but I should watch what I eat.  So I pretty much cut out creams and sauces and now I put skim milk on my Fruity Pebbles.

Another thing they do when you give blood now is they tell your cholesterol history.  I went from a 219 on February 19 to 181 on October 13 this year.  Glad to see that.  I don't know the ratio but right now I'm just happy with the number.
