    Tell me about it ....In February my cholesterol was 3.5 bmi 24. Roll on 6 months my cholesterol is 7 and bmi 29....told off by my doctor. Heart disease in my family has been a killer. Total wake up call, only on my second week but feel better already. Nothing like a wake up call to make you take action. ..
