50,000 Mile Check Up

I went in to see my doctor, who happens to be a member of my church, last week, because of some bleeding. He t0ld me no big deal, just a hemorrhoid problem. He said, eat more fruit and drink more water. He also told me it was time for a 50,00 mile check up, so to speak. Well, I had some blood work, it came back yesterday. All is good except for my triglycerides( bad fat) was over the limit. The top limit is supposed be 149, mine is 190. He put a note at the bottom of the page which said, "decrease fat, increase vegetables and exercise." I saw him last night, and asked him if eating more french fries and potato salad would be considered eating more vegetables. Also I informed him that Dr Pepper has not fat in it, and a banana moon pie was labeled low fat. He didn't buy into my theory.

Question: if triglycerides are bad fat, then what is good fat? I thought fat was fat, and it was all bad for you. Well, as you can see, becky has her hands full. Gotta go, I prunes to eat and water to drink!
