So thats the end of the 2nd week and im still here. Just had to make an appointment to see doc as cholesterol has come back as abnormal. Appointment is 2 weeks away of course. Should i keep on going? Ive read some bad things about high cholesterol being pretty dangerous

Do check with your doctor regarding your high cholesterol if its OK to continue with C25K.

10 years ago well before I began C25K my doctor subscribed low dosage Satins to me to lower my cholesterol levels, they did lower my cholesterol as well as me cutting out full quality milk and all the other creamy thing I used to take, the reason I survived my high cholesterol was that I did not smoke and did do at that time a lot of walking and cycling. 😊

Thank you. I dont know how High my cholesterol levels are, I'm presuming as I had to ask for my results and not phoned by the doctor that they may be manageable without the need for statins

I am on the lowest dose you can get, the only effect that I have had by taking them was to lower my cholesterol levels. 😊
