Both low cholesterol diet and exercise must go in synchronization with each other. It is a team game and not a one man video game. If you are lethargic to exercise how will your muscles develop?

As much as possible, steam the vegetables so that the nutritive content is retained to the maximum possible extent and additives such as oil are eliminated to some extent.

Replace ordinary or milk bread with wheat bread. Milk may come as different variants. Choose the variant or type of milk packet which has low cholesterol. Vegetables do not add to your body weight. Therefore nothing is wrong in consuming them in surplus.
