I also followed my own advice and my cholesterol has "hovered" SOMEWHERE around the normal range...AND I eat eggs/bacon/meat (in moderation) BUT I am on a diet that consists of proteins and NO DAMN BREADS OF ANY KIND....or other things that are processed...
When I changed my diet, I gave up grains. I do still make certain kinds of breads (such as Brazilian cheese bread made from tapioca flour), and I am certain that the lack of grains has helped with my cholesterol going down. My high cholesterol was due to kidney problems, and grains are hard on the kidneys as they are high in toxins.
I forgot to add that I have a gluten intolerance just enough to cause an issue...once I found that out and the connection to cholesterol...it was an easy decision!!!!. I also found out by a doctor that getting off the grains will get rid of the waist "fat" --the "rubber tire" the becomes pronounced as one gets older...WOWZA!!!
