Hi keto family,
I’ve been doing keto for 18 months now. Maintaining my 90 pound weight loss. 5’6 123 pounds, 36 years old. Never had high cholesterol before keto.
6 months into my journey I got bloodwork done and my cholesterol was high. Not to worry because I was new into the diet plus I had lost a lot of weight.
Two weeks ago I did another round of bloodwork. Been maintaining for a few months now.
So my total chol is 263. Should be under 200. Good chol is 65 which is fine.
LDL is 171 which should be under 130.
I don’t eat beef. I eat lamb maybe twice a month. Bacon maybe once a week. Sausage twice a week.
I’m a little lost. How am I gonna do low fat on keto? She wants me to change my diet for 8 weeks and then come back. I’m really upset because I absolutely love keto. And yes I can modify it but I feel like I’ll be hungry.
Any advice or suggestions?
