I am 27 years old, I wiegh 140 pound. I have been eating alot of fast food the last year or so, but are my numbers high? My doctor said they were fine, but they appear on the norm/High side, and I have read at different places on line, that mine is fine and that its not fine. Please help! Thanks Val

They appear to be fine. I would recommend that you reduce your intake of partially hydrogenated vegetable oils, and deep fat fried foods.

It is kinda high for someone your age. It is hard I know but there are some more healthful choices at fast food rest. now.
It will be a lot better to make healthy changes now than later like me. My friend and I did weight watchers and her cholesterol is high but it came down over 100 points after 4 mos. of a healthy lifestyle. This will be your only body. Take care of it. \
Look at it this way if you had a one of a kind car and it had to last a lifetime it would only take one time going to a place with bad gas and then your car spitting and sputtering and you wouldn't go back. Think of fast food as bad gas.

yes its ok.

as you age cholesterol levels will naturally increase
