My cholesterol is 144!

My mother thinks I should try to get it much lower.

Has she been talking to my dad? Even his cardiologist told him -- who has had quadruple bypass and 5 heart attacks -- that he was going overboard with wanting his cholesterol to be below 100.

Only thing that's in the bad range is tryglycerides, and considering that I pretty much never eat sugar and very rarely have white carbs, there's not much I can do about that besides medication.

IIRC, exercise is supposed to bring down triglycerides also.

Huh, Hubby's cardiologist wants his cholesterol in the 30s.

Interesting. I know I don't exercise as much as I ought to.

If God had meant us to exercise, he wouldn't have invented soft, cushy chairs.

And remote controls, so we only need to leave the chairs to go to the bathroom.

There are some who say it is, but personally? I think they're POD PEOPLE.
