Being an adult immigrant like us, born and raised in China and now living in Western society, we become more or less of W-easterners. I have always loved Western culture from my heart, which could trace back to my middle-school years. To be exact, i think it all happened when i first heard the Carpenters' song Yesterday Once More. From there, English as a language and English songs are all very close to my heart. And after immigration to Australia, I have been trying to mix into the main stream culture. Only recent two years, I started to rediscover the beauty of Chinese culture, all started from traditional Chinese medicine, which turned out not just about medicine, it actually is part of the Chinese philosophy, i.e. the attitude towards life, do things in moderate measures and not to indulge in anything. I feel as a Chinese descendant I actually don’t know much about our culture. So here I am, haven’t really “mixed into” the local Western society, and shamefully don’t even know much about my own tradition culture. Understanding the saying “The only thing goes Internationally is the unique aspect of a nation’s culture” now, I am trying to reconnect with my root while still loving Western music, movies and philosophy…

Ok, back onto the topic of food. It is the same with food that I am a W-easterner.
I love baking and all sorts of Western food, i.e. home-made pizza, pudding, banana bread, home-made bread, yoghurt, but not vegemite Apparently not as adaptive as you @yearshappy. I also love making traditional Chinese food, i.e. home-made rice liquor, moon cake, stir-fried pork wrapped in bread.

It is really difficult to find all those photos for the food, so I have dug into my Wechat moments and grabbed the following screen-shots.

My brekkie. The dark spread on toast was vegemite. How adaptive am I!

Looks too salty.
I've never tried vegemite before.

We did the blood test two weeks ago. The result came up last week....not good:-( Cholesterol ratio is much more than the standard, so is Triglyceride...we have to consider to give up some of our favorite...or reduce the portion... meat and sugar...these are all my best loved

Emm,  it's perhaps reasonable to have a second test as many factors such as taking certain medications, and the length of a fast, can sometimes affect the readings.
Nonetheless, a proper diet is always essential to a good health. Cut back on sugar then , also get portion under control.

Cutting back your sugar intake will help lower your triglyceride. Try to avoid refined sugar as much as you can while watching your carbohydrate.
As for high cholesterol, i understand its chief cause is fat, precisely trans fat (the worst of all, according to the lecture from Yale University I learned yesterday) as well as saturated fat. So, you may have to have some changes in your diet. With regularly exercising, you'll be all right over time.

Below is talking about sugar, cholesterol and diet (from the perspective of public health), just in case you're interested
https://oyc.yale.edu/psychology/psyc-123/lecture-4

I'd like to hear from @yping88; how do you keep a healthy cholesterol and lower bad LDL?

Normally we would have an egg,  porridge and salted veges in the morning. Steamed bread for lunch and dinner only cause no time to prepare more for breakfast.
