good god.. who told you that? Thats true if your 16 maybe... you can be skinny run every day and drop dead of a heart attack just the same as a 350lbs man if you do that when you are older than 25..
Lower your sugar intake as much as you can, start taking some fish oil pills regularly (especially if you don't eat fish already) and eat a lot more nuts and seeds. All 3 things should have a significant impact on lowering cholesterol as a whole--of course avoiding processed foods helps a lot too. To be honest my cholesterol can get up there a bit as well while doing these low carb diets but only when my bf% is too high and only temporary. I'd be more concerned if my triglycerides were high, those are the warning markers for inflammation and heart attacks, far more than cholesterol levels--most doctors aren't up to date with the research on that though.
