SCARED TO DEATH ANYONE GONE OR GOING THROUGH THIS

so i went for a routine blood draw for the life insurance company that i am trying to get ife insurance with . i got my results back and everthing was fine except my cholesterol. my trygliserides are high  and my good cholesterol is low and im just like what the hell . if any of you have ever read my profile im 22 and i didnot think i would have to worry about that for a while. and i know from reading on the internet that the trglycerides ard high because of my weight . i started back after three weeks of just not doing anything after my sisters wedding and it was nice to let myself relax and mondy i got back on it with my husband because i was starting to get flabbier now i feel like i have to do it to save my life. im in between being extra motivated to wanting to curl up in a ball and cry because i know i did this to myself.  im feeling anxious because we all know it is so hard to lose weight and keep it off its like what if i cant do it  .i feel blessed that i found out early and not when i had a heart attack or stroke or something but i feel like im up against unsermountable odds  . so if any one out there has any advice on how to lower the cholesterol  or are just going through it yourself please anything would help.

    I don’t have a cholesterol problem…as in it’s too high. My good chol (hdl) is low so I’m taking fish oil per my doc. I am pre-diabetic and looking diabetes in the face. Use this fear to change what your afraid of. Go to your doc and ask them for advice and get the help you need. Lose some weight because that always helps no matter what is wrong with you. The doc will be able to advise you better of what needs to be done and can also monitor you and will be able to see what your specific needs are. Just remember, your not alone. I am sure there are plenty of people on here with the same problem and you can always buddy up with one and get their advice. That’s what I did about the diabetes. I have a buddy who deals with it daily and gives me good advice. I take it and I also get it from my mom and take it too. I’m 37 now and no more going in one ear and out the other. I value their feedback. This isn’t a death sentence and remember that and use it to your advantage. Pre-Diabetes is a warning to people to tell them if we don’t change you WILL end up with diabetes. Well your numbers may not be super high and you can do something about it now instead of having troubles later or being right in the middle of trouble and risking your life. Your young and that’s good. I hope this helped. Take care of yourself.
