Those numbers are really high, you need help! My cholesterol was that high back in 1996 when they first put me on Meds. I always watched what I ate and I wasn't heavy. I think high cholesterol is genetic. If it's in your genes you are helpless. But getting your weight down would help. I'm on Weight Watchers, they count points, so I don't know much about fat grams. I do know that most fruits and veggies are 0 points, so I try and eat a lot of those. Bread has a lot of starch, so I tend to avoid that as much as possible. Chicken, fish, some pasta, fruits & veggies is what I eat. If I want a treat I eat low fat frozen yogurt with some berries on it. Absolutely NO cake, cookies, bars etc: It's hard at first giving up sweets but I find I don't crave them anymore. Exercise is VERY important also. Try and get as much exercise as possible, it will make you feel better and you'll have more energy. Hope this helps you.

So, there's no set amount of fat, sugar etc that a person should eat in a day. I've found that a diet 15% of energy from protein, 35%of energy from fats and 50% of energy from carbs works good and in addition to moderate exercise gives me a movie star body. To figure out a diet, I usually decide how many calories I'm going to shoot for. At 6' 2" and 155 lbs I eat 1750 calories a day. Most people eat considerably more, but my job is sitting at a desk, so I eat a little less. Each gram of carbs or protein is worth 4 calories. Each gram of fat is worth 9 calories. So that works out to 65 g protein(263 calories), 68 grams of fats (613 calories), and 219 grams of carbs (875 calories). This level of calories should be adequate for most women over 5' 5" and most guys under 6' 0" tall.
There is a suggested protein intake from US govt of about 1 g/kg of body weight per day. So my weight works out to 70 kg and thus my 65 grams of protein is pretty close to recommended amount.

So triglycerides are always high from eating too many carbohydrates. Your liver changes the carbs to triglycerides and then stores the triglycerides as fat all over your body. You can bring them down by reducing the carbs and compensating with extra healthy fats. Add a gram of flax oil to each meal you eat. Also add 3 - 5 grams of sunflower seeds to each meal. reduce the oatmeal you eat in the morning to 20 grams dry weight. Compensate for the calories by adding in raisins, walnuts and blueberries, goji berries. Top it off with soy milk instead of dairy milk. Eat soy meat substitutes instead of the fried chicken. Fried meats contain Advanced Glycation End products (AGE's) that will increase your rate of aging and also contain damaged oils that are unhealthy fats. You can tell because chicken grease solidifies at room temp. Healthy fats are all liquid at room temp. If you're still hungry snack on nuts like walnuts, cashews or peanuts and raisins. Tossed salads are good. Also some fruit is good, but avoid fruit juice. caio KS
