[QUOTE="Cocosilk, post: 2153014, member: 501623"] I didn't think about weightloss contributing to an elevated LDL but I have lost all but a kilo or two of the baby weight from my most recent addition so you're probably right there! Still have another 5kg to get back to pre-any babies weight though.. I'll be happier about my cholesterol if the subfraction test shows low small dense LDL. Then the fact that it's higher is probably just due to breastfeeding, weight changes and the fact that I was still healing from a c-section. All good reasons to need cholesterol, aren't they? As you say, my trigs and HDL look good, so that's the main thing I think. Just crazy that if I hadn't come across Dave Feldman and then Ken Sikaris, I might have started on a statin like many others do when they are prescribed. Glad for this forum as well so I stay sensible about carbs and not walk in the dark till I run into a wall like so many do. [/QUOTE]
