    You mean other than drinking way too many mochas this past year? Nope. OK, when I didn't drink mochas it was heavy cream with a little coffee.

    I've always had low cholesterol but this even blew away the results of the last test. I have no explanation. Aerobic exercise is one of the three ways specifically mentioned as a way to lower cholesterol - and not smoking. That one was really hard.

    I am really pondering. Maybe a little less cheese. We also switched to Eggbeaters but that was for the fat not the cholesterol.

    it's probably not less cheese, but rather thoughtful pairings of cheese with wine and/or port...

    LOL - I was thinking how does changing your pedals help but then I realized you must be talking about some sort of food. What is Eggbeaters?????

    Ha! Yes, the pedals are lower weight but . . .

    The edible ones are a product which has the yolk removed so you have all the protein and none of the fat. You can't make a poached or fried egg with them, but you can do just about anything else: omelets, dutch baby pancakes, etc.

    When we're on fishing trips and staying in a hotel with a microwave we'll dump a single serving container in a microwave bowl and cook it, and then make a sandwich with an English Muffin. Add a Morningstar sausage patty and you have tons of protein, little fat and even a little fiber. Far better than the normal eggs and sausage breakfast at the local diner.

    MP, I'm sure port has all the same medicinal qualities as red wine, right?
