[QUOTE="VanC, post: 619967, member: 3355"] Here's what I did a few years ago when my cholesterol was way too high and my doctor put me on a low fat diet. Six days a week I ate low fat foods. Tasteless cereals, lots of fruits and vegetables, Lean Cuisine entrees, all that crap. But the seventh day, usually on the weekend, I ate whatever I wanted, but was careful not to overdo it. It gave me something to look forward to, and I didn't get discouraged by that feeling that I would never enjoy a meal again. Also don't forget the excercise. A brisk 45 min to an hour walk will work wonders for lowering cholesterol and/or taking off weight. But it has to be every day. No excuses. Anyway, I lost 30 lbs and took the cholesterol from over 300 to 160 in three months. Naturally, I've gained all the weight back and my cholesterol is pushing 300 again, but you get the point. ;-) I also realize that I had more weight to lose than you do, but maybe if you allow yourself to eat something you really want once a week or two it'll make it easier. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
