Aww Donna i am so sorry to hear this, i know how hard you have worked at loosing the weight and exercising, however you keep at that, because it is only doing you good, unfortunately you have that hereditary disposition for it, nothing much you can do about it,at least you have the satisfaction of knowing that you did your very best, chin up girl, and keep up the good work, there will be rewards, maybe not the low cholesterol you wanted, but many more, i know you already know all that, but doesn't hurt to re-enforce it in your mind, HUGS.
