I just got a call from my doctor about my blood test results.

He said everything looked good but my cholesterol was "scary high" at 308. He wants to start me on pills to control it.

My question is, could my numbers have spiked due to eating hot dogs, hamburgers and sausages the week before the blood was drawn in an attempt to clean up the left-overs from the GTG I hosted on the 27th?? If that is possible, would it be plausible to spike 108 points over acceptable?

I plan to eat oatmeal every morning, get back into riding the stationary bike for 30 minutes everyday, and ELIMINATE ALL tasty grilled foods and see if my numbers go down. I guess I should avoid coffee too.

I hate taking pills of any kind and want to avoid taking a cholesterol pill for the rest of my life.
