174.0 this morning; another small drop. I didn't eat enough yesterday and ended up about 270 calories short of goal; I should have eaten an ounce of pecans before bed.

I am about to give up my whole milk yogurt in the morning as LDL just came back at 116. Yogurt is about the only saturated fat I eat regularly. So I will have to switch to fat free and have some oatmeal also, plus Metamucil between meals. Supposedly adding whole grain oats/wheat (if you haven't been eating it regularly before, which I had not) and Metamucil (or some other source of psyllium) can reduce LDL over 20% in a month. That would get me under 100, back in the normal range. So another twist to my diet.
