Doctor says my cholesterol is way too high

[u/jetf]

Im a 30year old Caucasian male. 6ft tall, 170lbs. Family history of high cholesterol

• Total = 245(mg/dl)
• HDL = 60
• LDL = 163
• Triglycerides = 106

I didnt fast before this sample but even so im scared by this. Doctor recommended i cut out sat fats and added sugar. I already exercise vigorously 5-6 days a week so theres only so much I can do. Hopefully it will go down after i clean up my diet a bit
