WOW! And the "standard" teaching was always that a vegan diet was a safe cholesterol diet. You said many of your family have high cholesterol also. I keep seeing ads that say there are two sources of cholesterol: diet and family. And even though the junk needs to go (good reminder for ALL of us) you have to try extra hard because of your family issues. My mother-in-law had a bad cholesterol count and the doctor said it was because her body was producing so much of it, not because of the amount of cholesterol that she was eating. I wish there were good tasting, easy to prepare foods. It seems that almost everything is every quick and unhealthy or tedious and healthy. I don't have time in my life for tedious anymore, and finding healthy foods is a trial. So I slip into the quick stuff. But, I still prefer thinking of dealing with health issues on my plate instead of out of pill bottle, so, there I am back in the mix again. Oh well, it's a new year and a great time for a new start, right? Blessings on your efforts.
