Matt, my cholesterol was bad, but already being vegetarian there was little for me to give up. I did the opposite by adding the good stuff, like oatmeal daily, and had quite dramatic improvement in my numbers. Maybe something like that would work better.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I am enjoying responding to mac's request with his recent insults to me about how useless I am.
I am on strike except for car rides. There is plenty of food available to him, but I am not making anything specifically for him.
Mom strike!
I thought it's sugar, not fat, that causes fatty liver? That's why it happens with high alcohol intake? Like, to get foie gras you stuff the goose with corn, not bacon... IDK IANAD
Maybe—I'm going to switch to Splenda or aspertame with coffee and see if that makes a difference.

I'll give anything a try at this point. I hate oatmeal, but I can choke it down if I have to.
What about cheerios?
or making a smoothie with oatmeal and fruit and milk
The cable guy was just here, upgrading. Hmming and poking at meters and things, I hear, sotto voce, "Hsss, these things don't usually do that."
"You don't usually see this in a large appliance," I said, offhand.
Guy cracked up. "Ghostbusters!" he muttered with a grin.
Day? Made.

Stevia! Much better option. And yeah, I get a lot of my oatmeal in smoothies. Less trouble than cooking in this hot climate.
^^^ Likes Bev's post. Lots.
:edit because
Also, Matt, it sounds counterintuitive, but try a little coconut oil in your oatmeal--it actually helps lower cholesterol. Might help with the liver, too. We throw in a handful of walnut pieces and dried cranberries and a dash of pumpkin pie spice (cinnamon, ginger, clove), and it's pretty good.
I like your design, Gud.
I'll second the 'tornadoes bad! Raises good!' sentiments.
That stage sounds more like an ER triage than a theater, sophia.
