It's amazing what a little education can do. I've been doing some research and tracking my food and it's actually really easy for me to cut cholesterol in my diet. I've been eating meat at only dinner usually, because that's what my husband and two teenage sons will eat, and that one meal involving meat doesn't come close to overdoing the cholesterol.

According to what I've seen, I should have 200mg or less of dietary cholesterol per day if I want to lower mine. I've been averaging less than 100. I've also been eating less calories, not because I'm really trying, but I'm practically a vegetarian now, lol, and I don't even eat butter, eggs or cheese anymore, so maybe I'll slim down too.

Also, it turns out the things I should be eating are things that I like, so this is easier than I expected. The only thing that is a little tough is that everyone else I hang out with is doing low carb, high protein now, and I'm basically the opposite :-)

I've been good about getting to the gym because it feels good and I'm a much nicer mom when I can sweat out the stress. No alcohol on weekdays, and when I do drink, it's red wine or whiskey, because beer bloat is not my friend.

In all, I've made some fairly major changes to my diet in the last 2 weeks. Now it's about maintenance and making this my lifestyle, not a diet. So far, the keys to keeping me on track are easy shakes in the morning and taking the time to wash and prep all the produce I buy on Sundays. So far, so good.
