Carol, wow -- your HDL is awesome! Are you doing anything special to get it

that high? Lots of exercise, flax seed oil, fatty fish... anything like

that?

Congratulations!

Carol: I too am very impressed with your fabulous HDL level. But I am

even more impressed that you are able to get down one of those Keto cereals!

ROFL!

Seriously, good for you ... obviously your hard work is paying off. I am

always curious about other people's exercise routines. I bodybuild too, 3x a

week. What are you doing, split routines or what? I clump it all together

in one session, upper and lower. At some point, if I become really

ambitious, I'll split my routines to 4X per week and add on a couple of more

exercises

per body part. Right now I do two different exercises per body part, 2 sets

each/12 reps/10 lb weights. Recently, I started augmenting that with a

treadmill routine on WL days where I put the incline up to 10% and set the speed

at

a moderate 3.0 mph and literally " climb " for about 15 minutes (I'll extend

time as I get used to this.) It's great for quads, hamstrings, calves and

glutes. Anyone out there who decides to give this a try: GO SLOW otherwise

you will get some serious muscle soreness (specially shins.) I found this out

the hard way.

My cholesterol is 94. I am a distal RNY almost 8 years out. I will have to

check what my HDLs are. I cannot remember.

Great job!

It is recommended that the overall cholestrol be less than 200, HDL's

over 40, and LDL's less then 130. As long as I am within those ranges,

I'm fine. I had to realize a lont time ago that I couldn't compare me to

anyone else. I personally love your numbers.

Gotta tell you I eat this stuff every weekday. Love the banana and the plain -

HATE the apple cinnamon!

Re: Fat absorption/ cholesterol

It is an acquired taste lol.. But truly, the banana nut cereal with

a touch of caramel SF syrup or butter rum and 2T of flaxseed is very

good. The apple cinnamon with cinnamon SF syrup and a handful of

blueberries is VERY good (or maybe it's growing on me

Funny how these things start tasting good after awhile lol!
