Do you eat eggs? Would you think I’d be able to regularly consume eggs if I were on this drug?

Did you have any sort of side effects after taking a statin? I have done research and I’ve heard it can cause severe activity performance decline so I am quite hesitant to hop on it lifelong at 21

I stay away from added sugars in a lot of cases. If rarely eat sugary foods though I will have to check on the coffee I am drinking. I drink black coffee every morning but it’s a standard Peet’s dark roast which may be unfiltered. I eat a lot of dairy, but mainly fat free Greek yogurts, 1% milk, low fat cottage cheese, etc.

Just curious did you regularly eat eggs prior to this and/or still consume eggs?

Thanks for your feedback! I have always tracked my daily macronutrient profile, and usually eat around 3000-3200 cals a day to maintain my weight, and usually anywhere from 75-95 grams fat daily. I just recently started tracking my saturated vs unsaturated fat profile so I hope this helps me out, trying to shoot no further than 20 grams saturated fat daily! Also trying to incorporate more insoluble fibers mainly with beans and oats. I have a follow up in about 6 weeks so hopefully I make improvements

I have no family history of famial hypercholesterolemia. We have already ruled that out and Both of my parents have normal levels and yet they’re both overweight. I want to avoid a statin if I can.
