NO MORE BACON for you!...
ETA: Seriously 190 is high if its your "bad" cholesterol... and unless you look like arnold swartzeneggar at 25 then at 6 ft 1 " you should weigh in between 190-210. As my Dad told my brother when he was 10 YO at the supper table "YOU ARE FAT, NOT BIG BONED FAT!....  I was like ...... ....... ...and then my ass got whipped with a belt.....It was worth it....

Unless you were fasting the test is meaningless. Go to your doctor and get a fasting lipid panel. That will tell you your total cholesterol, LDL, HDL, and triglycerides. LDL is the most important number. Depending on your risk factors your LDL should range somewhere <160 to <100. A lot of Dr.s believe <100 is optimal regardless of risk factors. Some even treat to a taget of <70.

Look at your report and tell us the LDL vs HDL.
190 while kind of on the medium high side isn't bad at all if it's primarily HDL count, however, if that count is primarily LDL then you need a diet change. |

It just means you are close to being told you are no longer allowed to eat things that make life worth living.
I call dibs on your bacon rations.

U RONG FO DAT! Funny! But RONG!Yep, you don't look fat to me either but it has more to do with diet. You should see me - well under 180 and have recently developed full blown damned diabetes. I'm lucky to have it under control with only pills and diet but this crap all comes with age and diet. My advice is to start getting the diet under control and maybe some exercise before it get worse. Cholesterol isn't that hard to tame at your age/size. |

What is your waist measurement? And I mean true, measured with a tape across your belly button, not your pants waist.
That will tell you a lot about your general level of fitness and excess body fat. |

You look fine weight wise and 190 is not that high. I view cholesterol as sort of a pseudo science. For example: my SIL runs about 30-40 miles a week has about 2 lbs of fat in her whole body, is practically a vegetarian although she does eat some chicken and fish. Her cholesterol was over 230. In other countries there are studies where the people have high cholesterol and low occurrence of heart disease. So I always am skeptical of one number meaning a whole lot. That being said there are plenty of simple diet changes that can drop your number by 20-30 points easily. |

You're in good shape cholesterol wise. Less than 200 total is ideal. Total number to HDL should be a ratio of 4:1 or lower (200 to 50 for example). 3.5:1 is ideal. |
