Male/34yr/170lb borderline diabetic (fast-105) with hypothyroid (tsh: 6.1) and total cholesterol 255 (ldl-173, hdl-36, tgly-227). can i avoid medicine?

Doubtful: Considering the prediabetic state, I would be a bit more aggressive with your cholesterol management - I might target 100 for your LDL which will be difficult to achieve with diet and exercise alone.
