There's a TV ad campaign showing people of different builds saying that any of those people could have high cholestrol - basically saying that you don't have to look fat in order to have high cholestrol. I think it depends on our genetic make up. Some people (like me) easily carry our fat on the outside. I gain weight just looking at junk food. Other people (like my aforementioned friend) carry their fat on the inside so they never look fat on the outside but they're fat on the inside. It's great that you have an active lifestyle and play sports - keep it up... but yeah, don't forget that eating and drinking healthy is also important.

It just goes to show that things can often be... More Than Meets The Eye!(TM)
