   This is the best thing ever!! Thank you so much for doing this! Really helps me plan- and I love that you are using ingredients more than once. Like you said, no need to be wasteful.

   One quick question- I’ve lost almost 30 pounds and completely changed my lifestyle since finding your website. I workout with you everyday and eat much healthier (except for ice cream- I loooove ice cream haha). Well my doctor recently said my cholesterol has increased significantly (I’m embarrassed to say but it’s 256) despite all of my healthy changes. I am against cholesterol medicine so do you know of anything that might help this maple syrup running in my veins haha

   Thank you for all you do for your WarriorZ!!!

     Hi Brittany,
     do you know also the ratio of LDL/HDL? You could add more omega-3 acid and decrease omega-6, in other words, add more fish oil and olive oil (extra virgin) reduce the amount of sunflower/rapeseed and other common oil. Do you eat nuts? Just give us a brief description of your typical day that might help us to advise you.

       Thank you so much for your response! My HDL is 69 and LDL is 171.
       For breakfast I typically rotate between 3 things depending on when I do my training. Oatmeal, scrambled eggs and fruit, or Greek yogurt and fruit with honey.
       I travel majority of the month so lunch and dinner vary a whole lot.
       For lunch I try to eat chicken and vegetables or salad.
       Dinner is harder to say because it always changes! Haha
       Snacks- Quest protein bar or an apple
       For cooking, I only use olive oil and coconut oil. My stomach can’t handle bread or pasta so I very rarely eat that.
       For the most part I follow a paleo/primal diet.

         I feel so ashmaed for answering so late 🙁
         Maybe you should avoid eggs as some people just have troubles with their metabolism that causes high cholesterol levels (even though healthy people can eat as many eggs as they want without having any problem). Maybe eating fatty sea fish (like mackerel, sardines) and/or supplementing omega-3 fatty acidx could help you a little bit, and as I said try to avoid eggs at teh same time for at least month and then check your doctor again.

         I hope that would help you and wish you better health to the upcoming year 🙂

           Thank you so much for your response! We’ll see how it goes! I’m taking a bunch of vitamins and limiting red meat. Eggs will be hard to let go of. Haha
