Cholesterol! The Good, The Bad, The Truth

I've been thinking about cholesterol and heart disease lately.

One thing I appreciate about my own journey is that I've been able to separate my weight from my health. You can be overweight and healthy, and slender and unhealthy.

A much stronger and more sustainable motivator for a healthy lifestyle is better health, not how much you weigh or what you look like!

I am a normal weight and have been for several years. I have a pretty healthy diet most of the time. The way I live is not "perfect" from a disease-fighting perspective, but it is sustainable, and that's far more important than perfection.

And I have heart disease. Will I change anything in my diet? Nope. And I'll tell you why.
