Jim was told that his cholesterol was too low (145 total) so he started eating
eggs and cheese once in a while.  160 is supposed to be ideal.  I have not
bothered measuring mine.  Changing the types of things you eat affects your
weight without trying to diet.  I weighed 20 lb more when I ate school food,
which was always greasy and had a lot of desserts.

My grandmother was obese all her life and died at about age 70 of diabetes.
Nobody else in the large family has had diabetes.  I have one neighbor,
overeight, with diabetes, who was told to lose weight and it would get better.
