Ghost,
I should have clarified my post, sorry.  Yes, we're eating some fats but not the unhealthy ones.  Lots of evoo instead of butter or that fake, gross margarine, lol.  The goal, as I'm sure you're aware, is to raise hdl and lower ldl.  I recently retired from the healthcare field and have known all along the right way to eat...but, it's so easy to not.  His bloodwork was the kick in the pants that we needed. I've been the same size forever but am old enough to worry about heart disease.  I hope we can be as successful as you guys have been!
