So my blood report came in.. and I am in for trouble..

[The Stigenator]

Triglycerides : 389
Cholestrol : 296
HDL : 39
LDL: 180

Weight: 180lbs

HOLY Crap. I was told to go on the atkins, guess what.. mom's sabotaging it for me.

UGH!

How do i get her to stop giving me low fat, and what she thinks is healthy food. I must say i put on 20 lbs since i got back from india, and all of it is due to mom's cooking .. i have put on weight every time i came back to LA from school.

Any ideas short of moving out and cooking my own food.

You don't have to move out...but...you could, you know, grow up and cook your own damn food!

Stop posting here and go running. Prove to her you can eat fatty goodness and still be healthy.

I don't understand. You're trying to eat fatty foods?

 

[Ns1]

don't move out and cook your own food?

 

[JulesMaximus]

Go back to India?

 

[The Stigenator]

the doctor said to bring down my levels, i need to have all the bad stuff, all fatty food, but no carbs.

Lunch today: fried rice.. ugh!

Actually that will make me lose weight really fast!


Cooking my own food.. sure.. but she usually says i make a mess of her kitchen.. so that wont work. And the reason i cant move out besides not able to afford it, is that they were planning to go to india in october for a year, now thats been pushed to next spring.

ugh!

Your doctor actually told you to go on Atkins? Wouldn't that be counter productive for lowering your cholesterol?

I know, but he claims it will bring down my weight, and fix the blood related problems.
Mom doesnt believe in atkins. She sabotaged my dietecians menu when i moved back home in feb.

That makes no sense whatsoever. You don't eat fatty food when you have high cholestorol.

 

[Tsaico]

Well, hope things get better for you man.

I'd fire my doctor.

You need low fat foods, high fiber, exercise, and maybe even some cholesterol lowering drugs perscribed.

 

[richardycc]

thats so American, blame others for your own fault...did your mom force foods down your mouth??

 

[The Stigenator]

well the blood work and stuff was done for work, i will talk to my doctor at kaiser in a few weeks and see what comes up.

For real. That doc sounds like a quack or the OP can't understand simple instructions.

OP, how old are you? have you tried diet/exercise at all as a means to lower your cholesterol? if that doesn't work you are a candidate for cholesterol lowering meds.

Then why don't you grow up and clean up after yourself. That kind of discipline will be needed to get healthier as well.

Cook your own food, get some exercise, drink a lot of water and green tea.

 

[Kadarin]

You know your mom better than we do.

 

[imported_LoKe]

I'm so confused.

You want to eat bad, fatty foods to lower your weight?

The possibility of death is strong with this one.

 

[xboxist]

Can the OP or something else clarify just what the hell the OP needs, or is trying to do?

 

[eakers]

what the hell kind of doctor tells someone to go on Atkins?! That is like the worst for your heart/liver/kidneys.

 

[The Stigenator]

Ideally i wanna lose weight, get back in shape and not have mom interfere with her own 'ideologies' of how i should be fed.
