Are there any supplements anyone else is familiar with that I can take besides this? My low is to low and my high is to high, according to them. I’ve looked at my daily foods and can hardly find anything that has cholesterol in it, other than milk. Could I lose 5-8 lbs, sure..would that make a difference?

Hi fren, please tell us about your routine. What food and when you eat them, did you experiment first and found your sweet spot?
Sure! My routine is typically black coffee in the morning, water all day, then dinner. Once I eat dinner, I feel free to eat whatever I want after. Most nights dinner is a protein and a lot of veggies, but tonight I scarfed down a couple of sloppy joes (lots of sports happening on Thursdays). I have just learned that consuming a starch WITH a protein causes the acidity in your stomach acid to neutralize too much to properly break down the protein, so for now, I'm trying to keep protein meals separate from starchy meals (I failed with the sloppy joes). I also keep cashews handy all the time in case I get hungry while I'm out and about. And I have no hesitation meeting up with a friend for breakfast or lunch. Since it's no longer my norm, it typically serves as a good reminder of why I don't eat like that on a regular basis anymore.
The first two weeks were HARD! By dinner I was hangry. After adjusting to it, though, it was much easier. I never experimented much with eating just breakfast only or just lunch only, but I've read about people who do that, too.
Thanks heaps for the detailed reply. I'm going to try it out. There's this kid Mikey Musumeci who only eats once a day, mainly pizza pasta at night and a world champion athlete in BJJ, so it's doable.
Haha. I would stick to healthy, unprocessed foods. Otherwise, you're just binge eating daily. Ronda Rousey is maybe a better example.
