21m here. My cholesterol was sky‑high because I kept munching kurkure, Maggi and Lay's. I swore off them. I was scared I might have a genetic condition that raises cholesterol, but I stuck to a strict diet – no sugar, no oil or ghee. For breakfast I ate plain dalia every day for a month. I added cardio and didn't take any medication. My calorie deficit was about 700‑800 kcal on average. I'm thrilled that my cholesterol is now normal, I feel light and healthy.

Hey bro, I want to lower my cholesterol and lose fat, but I cannot control my cravings and end up ordering unhealthy food almost every day. Can you suggest how to beat those cravings? Thanks.
I can walk and do cardio, but figuring out calories is the hardest part. How do you calculate the calories in everything you eat?
It will take six to eight months to normalise. Sudden fluctuations aren't a permanent fix; the body and liver need time to settle.
In one month?
How do you manage 15k steps daily? I can only reach 8–9k steps.
Did you lose any weight?
Love this! I'll share more updates later. In six weeks I've lost 5.4 kg and all my health markers are now normal, after dealing with five years of hypertension and post‑COVID issues.
Any changes to your username?
Congrats! My total cholesterol is also 320, triglycerides 275, and testosterone jumped to 440 ng/dL, which drove me mad. Now I'm doing zone‑2 runs – 3 km daily – plus 10 k steps, 100 push‑ups and 100 squats every day. Let's see the results after three months.
Proud of you, OP.
