Bah, went for a cholesterol test last week, and it turns out I have "slightly elevated levels", and they want me to make an appointment to dicuss it.
First glasses, and now this? I wonder if I can sue my parents for giving me defective genes.
I'm not particularly worried about it (pending doctor-grilling about what exactly "slightly elevated" entails), but it does mean I'll probably have to cut down on my mammoth fry-ups. KHAAAAAAAAAAN!
It does make breakfast a little tricky on a low carb - high fat diet, but if you're going to have carbs, breakfast is the best time to have them. Anyone have tips on making porridge interesting? Apart from the obvious one of serving it with fried bacon and eggs.
I'm a little intrigued as to what the doctor's going to say, and whether or not he'll have a fit when I mention I'm on a high fat diet for fat-loss. I might ask him about BMI to try and catch him out. ;)
