Ok, I'm behind. Life speeds up and all that.

I didn't know standard pasta could increase cholesterol. Was this special "pasta" designed to reduce cholesterol?

What sort of pasta were you eating before? I have seen at the shops this thing that was described at pasta. It was dried out and the packet said you have to boil it for 10 minutes or something. Looked more like two minutes noodles. It was very cheap.

Real pasta contains eggs, I think eggs can increase cholesterol. But in pasta you'd have to eat a heap of it.

Are you vegetarian? I see no meat in that dish. Isn't red meat the main cause of cholesterol?
Lol no not vegetarian but I sometimes eat vegetarian just cause it's easier at times.

And just normal San Remo pasta. I think her point was to try and increase fibre into my life. This legume pasta has lots of fibre which is known to reduce cholesterol levels. She recommended weetbix too which thankfully I already like lol.

And yeah eggs, especially the yolk, contributes.

And MWPP i don't normally have that many eggs. Unless I'm making an omelette, I might use 3 or 4 eggs.

Egg white/vegetable omelettes are a great alternative
Back when I used to have omelettes , 2 egg whites + lots of veggies (finely chopped mushrooms, baby spinach, corn, capsicum, tomato ) + Italian herbs /chilli flakes as seasoning really hit the spot :)
 
Yeah, I might need to cut back on it a bit too. I don't know if I could last without it once a month, but maybe once a fortnight is do-able. Trying to find other options to cook too. Going to try and wean myself off snacking on crisps and chocolate (not that I do it THAT much but still), and not eating AS much white bread <-- that's a tough one. Also limit egg intake to two a day or not at all. Man it's hard to change your habits :(

Eggs are good for you, the myth is incorrect...they are an actual 'super food'
 
I'm fussy when it comes to bread. I hate rye, it's too dense and tastes gross. Multi-grain is marginally tolerable. Gluten free bread absolutely not - plus it costs the earth and I'm not a coeliac so would feel bad taking that away from someone who is. Sourdough is probably better than most other normal white bread types. Sigh.... I think I'm going to have to learn to love salads LOL. There's a really good salad place near my work - you get a protein (chicken or like, chickpea/lentil patties) and pick two salad types. Really tasty. But I can't eat that all the time!

Multi grain bread has a whole lot more starch in it than whole grain/white bread...which is straight up sugar

Him and a handful of others have been trying that on me and the rookies since we got here. Such a tired tactic.

It has nothing to do with rookies. Other teams are the enemy...if you are on another team than me, you are the enemy, so it has always been...so it will always be. Now go and eat your salt and be a good boy/girl/neutral agenda

Man..... I think the key is eat in moderation!

I think the key also is to be happy and enjoy your food. If you force yourself to eat 'healthy' but find it bland..you stress, and as their are more nerves in the stomach than say the brain, it has an effect on your digestive system like causing muscles to contract trapping gas and causing all sorts of chaos

As I said, eggs are good for you. They contain/produce the 'good' cholesterol. But yes, fibre of the soluble kind...and exercise
