current, past

Total 227 = 200-239 mg/dL, borderline high, 233 in the past
Tri 232 = 200-499 mg/dL, high, 88 in the past
LDL 144 = 130-159 mg/dL, borderline high, 54 in the past
HDL 37, risk ratio 3.88 = Below 50 mg/dL (women), poor, 158.8 in the past

I would try getting rid of overt fats, at least for now. You are craving nuts for calories. Instead, eat fruit for calories. Buy your fruit in bulk (by the case, in boxes) so that you are not hungry for nuts. The produce department unloads those boxes and puts the food on the shelf. Those are the boxes you want. I buy from a co-op once a week on Tuesdays and get everything by the case or a split (shared) case. After trying this, retest.
