- For YEARS, my cholesterol has been high. When I weighed less and more. When eating healthily and stress-eating. Doctors always told me to eat better and lose weight. Two months ago, I started a low dose of a statin. Just got bloodwork. My cholesterol is normal for the first time since my early 20s.
