Losing weight, and exercising more will help bring it down. Also avoiding foods that are high in saturated fat as opposed to foods which don't have as much or healthier forms of fat (e.g. poultry, nuts, avocados, pumpkin and healthier oils like sunflower seed oil, sesame seed oil, black walnut oil, etc...) will also aid you.
Here is a helpful list :

Usually I dont recommend eating a lot of eggs everyday. Maybe every 2 days 4 hard boiled eggs for breakfast. Any other times its lean chicken or beef with added EVOO , coconut oil, or fish oil caps.0
