So, I am overweight (honestly, I am obese). Last June I had a blood test for my cholesterol levels (before they were very close to borderline). When they came back, it had improved. Also my blood pressure was fine.
However, since I have started college, I am worried that because of my diet, my cholesterol levels may have risen (I feel my body succumbing to the fat...not literally, don't worry). My diet (on a scale of 1-10), deserves no more than a 5. I eat out more than I need to, but I try to counter it with eating salads and healthy cereals etc. Lately I have increased the amount of fiber in my diet.
I also try to help my body out with a lot of walking (I can say with honesty that I achieve about 30-35 minutes of walking a day).. I play a lot of DDR lately to burn more.
So my questions:
1). With further modifications to my diet, can I reduce my cholesterol with excerise?
2). Does half a year of bad eating (not every single day of course) affect you a lot compared to 5-6 years?
