For the Love of Eggs

Dear Healthy Cholesterol Levels,

I GAVE UP EGG YOLKS FOR YOU!!!

What's this "Above Optimal" crap? 107? What kind of number is 107??? I've spent a full year not eating egg yolks, and you want to know what else I've been doing?

EX-ER-CIS-ING.

That's right; I've spent six weeks on an exercise regimen, consistently. I haven't done that since I was 17. I've even lost weight, so clearly all this exercise is helpful, right??? So why aren't you in the optimal range???

Also, I spent a couple months consuming fish oil pills until I couldn't hack the fishy burps anymore. That should count for something. 

Sincerely,

Me.

In case anyone is wondering, I got my annual blood draw results back today. My cholesterol, while 21 points lower than last year, is still high.

Seriously, what do they want from me? I miss my egg yolks.
