Brief Answer:
Loosing weight and low fat diet recommended.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor's service.
I read your query and here is my advice.

You are having elevated LDL levels and normal HDL , triglycerides, BMI.
Your BMI shows that you are obese so you should lower weight imediately.
The LDL levels are high and should be less than 100 mg/dl.
These results are not very dangerous .
Loosing weight and low fat diet necessary.


Hope I have answered the question.

Ok great. Thank you. I am 6’ 1” and 225 lbs. Large frame so 195 lbs will be my goal as I actually look very skinny below 190. I am already fairly active and I will change my diet to very low fat and limit calories. Can you tell me a proper amount of calories for me to lose weight? 64 years old, moderately active and my size?? Thx in advance.

Brief Answer:
Having 2000 calories per day will help you reduce weight.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear and thank you for asking again.
You can reduce the calorie intake and you can have 2000 calories or less per day in order to loose a pound per week or more.
Increasing physical activity will help you stabilize the LDL levels also.
